Blog Buzz Special Wesley Clark Swift Boating Edition: related news

Blog Buzz: Special Wesley Clark Swift-Boating Edition

Were Wes Clark's remarks about John McCain's Vietnam War experiences out of line? Of all the things one can criticize McCain for, The Huffington Post's Robert Guttman notes, "lacking command experience" doesn't seem very important. And Andrew Sullivan on the Atlantic's Daily Dish accuses Clark of "swift-boating McCain," maintaining that McCain's military record (like Kerry's) should be revered, period. But Jon Soltz, another Huffington Post blogger, believes Clark is "100 percent absolutely right" and should not back down. TPM's Josh Marshall thinks the idea that Clark's comment was a case of "swift-boating" is both inane and a reflection of how out of touchthe D.C. media bigwigs are. Other Obama-ites agree, pointing out that Clark wasn't questioning McCain's service but rather the manner in which it translates to presidential credentials

Blog Buzz: The Never-Ending Clark-McCain Squabble and McCain-Romney?

L'Affaire Clark rolls into its third day (in case you've been too busy cleaning out your Swift Boat to follow the news, The Fix sums up where we've been so far) and the McCain campaign sets up another conference call defending their candidate McMilitary McRecord. And McCain supporters continue to make the case that Clark was not a political lone gunman. Was Wes Clark Swift Boating McCain? "No!" say McCain supporters because the Swift Boaters were right (whereas Clark supporters say no because the Swift Boaters were wrong). Speaking of military records, Clark's is now under fire. Clark, meanwhile, refuses to retreat and keeps charging forward (generally into the path of oncoming television cameras). Is it helpful? Certainly he's started conversations about what exactly McCain's military record qualifies him for.

Blog Buzz: Special Unity Edition

Political Intelligence's Foon Rhee notes that after months of acrimony, it's a virtual lovefest among the Democrats, culminating in today's rally in Unity, N.H. But John Nichols on the Natio n's Campaign '08 thinks the notion that Obama and Clinton were in a battle to death was always a theatrical rather than a realistic one. Meanwhile, Mark Halperin on Time's The Page calls Obama and Clinton "perfect together." TNR's Michael Crowley also approves, while other TNR entries take a lighter view. Even committed Hillary-ite Taylor Marsh says it went as well as could be expected (his tie matched her pantsuit). Meanwhile, NRO's Kathryn Jean Lopez sheds some crocodile tears before (Buzz assumes) cracking wise about the missing Clinton.

Breaking Down Blog Spam Malware

Jesper Johansson, co-author of Windows Vista Security: Securing Vista Against Malicious Attacks, recently wrote an article in The Register which dissects a new type of threat. Anyone with a blog has probably seen blog spam- comments made on blog posts which have little or nothing to do with the actual blog post, but contain links to spam-related web sites. I have spam filters in place, so I rarely even see the blog spam posts. They are an annoyance, and I simply delete them in periodic batches. However, Jesper did stop to look at the spam and noticed that a new breed was becoming prevalent. The new breed, rather than just leading to some annoying spam site, are actually malware attacks. For a complete breakdown of the threat, and Jesper's dissection and analysis, check out Anatomy of a Malware Scam.
