While we wait to see the results of today’s primary that will surely force the end of Hillary Clinton’s campaign even if she wins, let’s tour the non-peer reviewed internets, shall we?
Bob Somerby has a really interesting ethnographic analysis today at The Daily Howler , arguing that the press corps’ dominant Hillary hatred can be traced to middle-aged ”East Coast Irish Catholics” prominent at NBC and the New York Times, and the particular stew of “psychosexual lunacies” that their mid-twentieth century upbringing has wrought. Check it out: he writes that ”[Maureen] Dowd and [Chris] Matthews are the press corps’ leading psychosexual nut-cases.” Somerby (an East Coast Irish Catholic himself) also enlists the assitance of Gene Lyons, another East Coast Irish Catholic who affirms that it’s all part of the culture: “Having basically grown up in a Maureen Dowd column, albeit...

"Despite some of the neoconservative Jewish members that they have that are very hawkish," he said, "they generally tend to be more of... more
My uncle called me yesterday. He’s 87 years old and one of only 2 surviving siblings from an Irish Catholic family with 12 kids. Well, actually 10 kids and a set of twins from the oldest daughter, who were raised as younger siblings until the secret came out long after my grandmother died.
I don’t know a whole lot about my ancestry. My mother was not one to share much about the past at all. I know that my great-great grandmother was a native American, but no one bothered to r... more

Duh .  Historiann attended the exact same undergraduate (and graduate) institutions as the second-most prominent women’s college graduate in the United States since Katherine Hepburn died.  (You know who the most famous American women’s college graduate is!) It would be nice if women’s colleges graduated proportionately more people who got graduate degrees in something other than the humanities–not that there’s anything wrong with t... more
Well, we found out a few things tonight:
One, Ted Strickland looks like a great candidate for Vice President if Hillary Clinton is indeed the Democratic nominee. Two, Obama should drop out immediately because continuing his campaign is divisive and hurting party unity . My math (see above) proves conclusively that he can’t win the nomination without the Superdelegates . (Kidding! Well, except for the Ted Strickland as V.P. part. Ohio’s a must-wi... more
