14551 [lbo-talk] Hillary triangulates -- rank: 1000
[from The Note] Anti-amendment Democrats like Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) may also team with Sen. Bennett to push alternative legislation that would attempt to ban some forms of flag desecration (in a way that the Supreme Court finds permissible) without amending the Constitution, thus giving potential cover to some lawmakers who have supported the amendment in the past, but are having second thoughts now.

Several times a week the front page contains a great piece that a left periodical should have done. But their reporters have a lot of resources to work with - they're allowed a long time to work on those pieces, and you get lots of access when you say you're calling from the WSJ.
