12025 [lbo-talk] McClatchy Poll: Edwards surges, Huckabee's bubble bursts -- rank: 1000
...or, as they're saying, is the Huckabubble becoming a Huckabust? These Iowa polls are meaningless. No one can forecast from a sample who will actually turn up at the caucuses, and once there, how they will vote. The races in both parties are tight is about all you can say. And it doesn't really matter who wins in Iowa anyway.

12027 [lbo-talk] Islamism, etc. -- rank: 1000
I'm still amazed, and amused, by the fact that several people complained about the list moratorium on discussing Iranian domestic politics, yet not a word has been uttered on the topic in the weeks since the ban was lifted. I guess it was just something to kvetch about, and people do love to kvetch. In any case, Aijaz Ahmad has a piece in the 2008 Socialist Register on "Islam, Islamisms, and the West" at: <http://socialistregister.com/socialistregister.com/files/ SR_08_Ahmad_0. ...
