In the latest Rasmussen poll, Scott Brown is tied 45-45 with Elizabeth Warren. The voters don't seem to be buying Brown's brutal attacks on Warren, nor do they seem to be buying Brown himself.

I'm not surprised. I was born in Boston, and I have been full-time staff...

I'm fairly confident many Huffington Post readers will agree with this statement: "Corporate money has perverted the American electoral and governance processes to the point where elections and governance can no longer be said to reflect the will of, or best interests of, the public."

What few of us...

Spending almost two hours in the dark with Steve Carell, Julianne Moore, Ryan Gosling, and Emma Stone, enjoying their trials and travails, their growth and their romance, is really so much fun that you're to be forgiven if you don't realize, by the time you walk out, that you've just...

Today would have been the great liberal Senator Paul Wellstone's sixty-seventh birthday. He was killed in a plane crash in 2002 along with his wife Sheila, his daughter Marcia, and three members of his staff, and two pilots. It was just eleven days before he was slated to win his...

I'm honored to bring to your attention the following two-minute film. It covers a simple subject: a man painting a portrait. However, to fully understand the significance of this film, it helps to know who the painter is and who he is painting.

Which means, my biggest hope right now is that he really, truly, and passionately wanted Chicago to host the 2016 Olympics....

The longest I've ever worked for anyone was for Ted Kennedy. I was joint Labor Committee staff to him and Senator Paul Wellstone for four years. Here's some of what I took away from that experience.

For all forty-six years Kennedy has been a Senator, he's kept the same...

First, the good news. Obama is one of the most gifted politicians of our lifetimes. A supremely effective manager, an inspirational speaker, and a transformative leader. An Obama victory on Tuesday will increase consumer confidence, spur the beginnings of an economic turnaround, inspire a generation of Americans, say more than...

The writers strike that shut down Hollywood for more than three months officially began in November, but the groundwork was laid much earlier. It started with something the town rarely notices: a routine, biannual WGA election.

Back in 2005, there was already a growing consensus that the negotiations in '07...
