There is relative media silence about reports that Latino gangs in the Florence neighborhood of Los Angeles had systematically tried to murder blacks in a sort of primeval ethnic cleansing. Never heard about this before. If true, it is indeed shocking - and so is the silence around it.

I continue to be baffled by John Edwards, really am bewildered. His anti-corporate, populist message is typically American ...... But what I can't fathom is the complete disconnect between the blow-dried Edwards—charging a broke UC system thousands for a talk on poverty, working for a Hedge Fund, living in a mansion .... and on—being taken seriously as a candidate The Edwards candidacy baffles me too. I thought his "John and I" speech at the last Dem convention would be the end of his White House ambitions.
