Wherein I praise David Broder

This is the first and most probably the last time I'm linking approvingly to David Broder. But under the premise that one should reward good behavior, he gets quote of the day from this delicious takedown of Dana Milbank.

From too many years of covering politics, I have come to believe as Axiom One that the absolute worst advice politicians ever receive comes from journalists who fancy themselves great campaign strategists.

Milbank now is urging Obama to emulate Gordon Brown, who is probably just weeks away from being voted out as Britain's prime minister, and start bullying people himself. That is -- well, it's in the great tradition.

Why so it is.
