More Reax to Israeli Election

++J Street sees the re-election of Bibi as a threat to Israel's Shield--that is America's role at the United Nations to side-track anti-Israel resolutions and to veto more noxious ones. J Street sees the United States going more international in putting pressure on Bibi on the Palestinian issue.

++Fred Kaplan, who doesn't just us WASPs, writes in Slate "Israel Just Lost".Kaplan's point is that Bibi by doubling down on his stance against Israeli Arabs and the Palestinians puts the country into a box. Expect to see the disinvestment movement to become mainstream in our discourse.

++"Bibi Wins,Israel Loses" by Jonathan Alter repeats the themes of most of our op-eds that Bibi took the expedient way but left Israel with longer ,more durable troubles, particularly in the Western world.

++The Imperial Post thinks Bibi brought alot of grief on Israel. But, of course, this makes an Iranian nuclear deal harder?

++What makes the deal harder was that the GOP wants to jump the gun on additional sanctions and this plays into the Iranian hard-liners who can just blame the Zionists and call the whole thing off.

++The United States just took Iran and Hezbollah off the terrorist list. I wish there were objective criteria for both the "terrorist countries" and the "terrorist groups". On both the United States gives them credit for fighting ISIS.

Scott Walker is a Star!

++The criminal conspiracy has made it to the front page of the Washington Post,the lead story of Huffington Post,the Daily Beast,Up with Chris Hayes, the Ed Show. Walker is catching fire.

++What people who have followed Citizens United should know is while all the rich cats can donate under the radar,it can't be coordinated according to the decision. 

++The appearance of Karl Rove in an e-mail sent to him by Scott Walker shows why the IRS was investigating Rove's 501-C-4 and why the House attacked the IRS for the probe of 501-C-4s. 

++The Wisconsin papers --both rural and urban--have this as front page news. 

++The man has made it. He is a national figure. Now we know why Mitt Romney's name has resurfaced in the Republican Party.

All Polls Are Wrong:Romney Wins Debate

++The morning brought e-mails of articles by the right documenting why the polls were implausible.

++Glenn Beck said that Romney was behind in the polls so that the American people will realize that God placed a Republican in the White House on election day.

++Mitt Romney's campaign declared he has won the first debate as their leaked news release proclaims.

++Meanwhile the Hispanics are having none of it. Decisions Latino shows that President Obama now has passed 70% support and hit 73% with Willard now at 21%.

++Rasmussen has President Obama at 50 against Willard's 47.

++The Washington Post poll as the national race at Obama 49 and Romney 47 but in the swing states it is a whopping Obama 52 and 41 for Romney. Ezra Klein explains this.

++George Washington University and Politico have the same results.

++We Ask America  for Michigan --Obama 52 and Romney 40.

++We Ask America on Iowa--Obama 48 and Romney 44.

++PPP on North Carolina--Obama 48 to Romney 48.

++President Obama did hit 10 million small donors. Jim Messina of the Obama campaign told supporters not to worry about any Romney surge because the grassroots organization can handle it and will out hustle Romney in the Get Out the Vote efforts.

++John McCain is going to hit the road again in his patented bus tour. This time John will be touring Florida for Romney. The Romney campaign has pulled its resources from Missouri and placed them in Florida. They believe they have Missouri wrapped up.
