    It's the Surge, Stupid

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: If you're desperate to be John McCain's vice presidential nominee, you better get on TV and start talking up the Surge as the single most important issue in this year's presidential campaign.  And if you're serious about getting picked it wouldn't be a bad idea to say John McCain invented the idea of the surge and maybe even coined the word.  In today's episode of TPMtv we check in on some of the wannabes to see just how bad they want it.

    Just a Matter of History

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: In the past week John McCain and his surrogates have done their best to focus the entire McCain-Obama debate on the question of which candidate was right about the troop surge in Iraq. So it was a little surprising to see McCain on the CBS Evening News last night get a basic historical fact about the surge so plainly wrong.

    McCain Responds... And Responds...

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: With Barack Obama in the midst of a much-hyped trip to the Middle East and with all the news that came out over the weekend regarding the Iraqi government's positive comments toward Obama's withdrawal timetable, we figured it was only fair to allow John McCain a full episode of TPMtv to explain away the headlines.

    Flip-Flop in the Wilderness

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: Our question of the day: if a flip flops in the wilderness but no one hears, did it really flop? Or in other words, if a news story like John McCain's recent shift in position on troop levels in Afghanistan doesn't fit in with the dominant narrative of the campaign, will any news organizations pick up on it?

    Sunday Show Roundup: Phil Gramm Whine Time

    Real American?

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: It's been a slow burn up until now but it seems like the McCain surrogates are finally starting to pick up steam in their efforts to brand Barack Obama as un-American. We take a closer look in today's episode of TPMtv.
