		<description><![CDATA[BHASKAR SUNKARA My frustrations are normally directed at The Nation for its timidity.  The decay of the magazine under the guidance of editor Katrina Vanden Huevel has been tragic.  As Dennis Perrin put it, “Katrina vanden Heuvel has turned what was once a great, eclectic American radical mag into the mushy, puffy, largely unreadable mess [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We can all breathe again. Barack Obama has finally named his vice-presidential running mate, and it’s none other than Senator Joe Biden of Delaware. Media reaction to the choice has mostly revolved around Biden’s potential effect on the horserace and has predictably been rather inane.

In the huddle, I saw many familiar [...]]]></description>
