The Daily Howler parses the Obama-Reagan-Clinton debate issue — and the media’s misuse of it. Good stuff!

UPDATE: Judge for yourself. Obama’s now infamous Reagan remarks begin at around 19:00 minutes. BUT be certain to listen to his entire discussion at least until 21:00. I believe Obama endorses Reagan’s political leadership skills — which are indisputable — and not Reagan’s and more recent Republican ideas. The Clintons are using this discussion out of context, as are some progressive bloggers.

“The Republican approach I think has played itself out …”

Meanwhile Guardian Unlimited has an excellent review of Senate votes where Obama and Clinton have differed.
