← return to Water Cooler

Today’s Water Cooler lineup of off the beaten path online stories are: Blanche Lincoln’s health care delay is a ruse, the three main television news networks refuse to cover “Climate Gate,” coverage about the climate gate emails were buried deeply in the pages of The Boston Globe. 

    There was this peculiar part of the story, which seemed to indicate everything was planned. Lincoln explained to the reporter that she “didn’t rely on any outside advice in coming to her decision” or the manner in which she would announce her vote. Really, not even Landrieu or Reid.
