Tuned In to Tuned In

I assume most readers here are interested enough in politics to realize that Time’s coverage of it doesn’t stop at Swampland’s edge. Our colleague James Poniewozik often delves into matters political over at his blog about television, Tuned In; I’m going to make more of an effort to alert you all to his wonkier side when I can. Here are his takes on the future of election coverage, Jack’s Hillary ad, and Hillary’s 3AM ad. All worth a look.

Other places to look for crossover into our topics: The Curious Capitalist, and the Middle East Blog (where I just now happened on this interesting post on the arrival of the USS Cole in Lebanon) — though you certainly don’t have to stop there, take a look around, enjoy yourself! And if you find something appropriate for discussion here, or just of interest to Swampland readers, before we do, please let us know in the comments.

    Mother of Mitt: How Lenore Romney’s Failed Campaign Shaped the Presumptive Republican Nominee

    This week’s TIME cover story, “The Mother of the Mitt Campaign,” tells the tale of how Lenore Romney’s 1970 run for U.S. Senate may have made a bigger impression on the Republican presidential candidate than his years spent as the son of a governor. Mitt’s father lost his own presidential bid, but it was the lessons from his mother’s loss that are more instructive as Romney enters the campaign stretch.
