		<description><![CDATA[The idea of VotePact.org is a simple one: principled progressives and conscientious conservatives &#8212; instead of cancelling out each other&#8217;s votes, one for Obama, the other for Romney &#8212; should make a pact in pairs and both vote for the third party(s) that better reflect their beliefs.

		<description><![CDATA[Holidays can be awkward for a lot of reasons. One is that many spend time with people they seem to fundamentally disagree with politically.

		<description><![CDATA[A group of demonstrators recently got into an Obama fundraiser to protest the imprisonment of Bradley Manning, the alleged source of the WikiLeaks cables. They sang a song to Obama. Part of it went: &#8220;We&#8217;ll vote for you in 2012, yes that&#8217;s true / Look at the Republicans &#8212; what else can we do?&#8221; Manning is not [...]]]></description>
