WHAT EDITORIAL WRITER AND COLUMNIST RUTH MARCUS IS READING TODAY »

Night of the Living Constitution Weekly Standard | The future of the court hasn't gotten nearly enough attention in the campaign, and Terry Eastland makes an interesting argument that John McCain would not have much maneuvering room to appoint very conservative justices, given a strengthened Democratic Senate..

Michelle and Me Slate | A rather chilling account of a journalist's dealings with the none-too-cooperative Obama campaign for a biography of Michelle Obama.

The Crash: What Went Wrong Washington Post | This is the Big Picture piece I've been wanting to read.

McCain's Mission? Impossible. Slate | John Dickerson argues that tonight is McCain's last chance. I'm not sure it could do the trick.

So, How Are McCain's New Economic Proposals? New Republic: The Plank | One of my frustrations is that we tend to report that candidates' proposals exist without analyzing their impact. This is a useful (from the left) critique of the latest from McCain.
