I think I’ll start writing a weekly link roundup of interesting items I find around the Tubes that don’t merit a blog post of their own. Without further adieu:

Four Days in Denver

In this New York Magazine feature from several weeks ago, ‘West Wing’ writer Lawrence O’Donnell Jr. pens a movie-treatment on what would happen if the Democratic nomination remains deadlocked when we get to the Convention. Even though my favorite Democrats (Howard Dean and Al Gore) aren’t exactly portrayed in the most positive light, it’s a great read. Hat-tip to Patrick Ruffini.

Decision Tree: The Obama-Clinton Divide

This New York Times graphic warmed my heart as a computer programmer. Even a freshman in CS 101 could plop together some if/else statements to accurately portray the decision-making process of the American voter. Hat-tip to Mike Connery.
