In Today's Observer
Jason Horowitz contextualizes the G.O.P. free fall, and qualifies Newark as the 6th borough.
Michael McDonald thinks the Bubba bubble is gone, George Bush may be re-entering the reality based community.
Spencer Morgan catches up with Bill Clinton and finds the makings of a First Laddie.
Nicholas Von Hoffman examines Republicans and oil demand.
Mitchell Moss writes about the 'electibility index' in 2008.
Bruce Feirstein has his own version of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's letter to President Bush.
And Quinn, Pataki and Spitzer in the editorials.
Your Quinn editorial could have been better researched as the Council usually gets well over $150 million in expense pork, capital pet projects and restorations, some of which are also pork.
