Karl Rove being subpoenaed and John McCain

The New York Times is bullying John McCain for possibly keeping the newspaper from the pool of reporters who can view his medical records, conservatives charge, while liberals forecast trouble for McCain over his support from an anti-Islamic pastor.Pastor Parsley

Hillary Clinton is taking heat from bloggers over the way she's pushing for Florida and Michigan's delegates to be seated at the Democratic convention, while conservative bloggers find Barack Obama changing his position on talks with Iran.

Clinton's comparison of the fight for two states' delegates to abolitionism is an attempt to steal the nomination and shows that she's "tempermentally unfit for the presidency," writes The Plank's Jonathan Chait. One of her most hard-boiled supporters, Lanny Davis, has now joined the Liberal Media Bias Cult, according to Josh Marshall, who has video of Davis lauding Fox News's coverage.

Clinton may claim a moral victory and bolster her case for the vice presidency by winning more delegates from the two states, MyDD's Todd Beeton writes. But she's not going to get the amount of delegates she wants, since the Democrats on the committee is full of people loyal to Obama or party chairman Howard Dean, reports the Huffington Post's Thomas B. Edsall.

Obama is waffling on his call for talks with leaders of Iran and other rogue nations, as his advisers are throwing in caveats to any negotiations the Illinois Democrat would be involved in, writes RedState's Pejman Yousefzadeh. John McCain is right to take a whack at Obama's less-than-straight answer, since that may get Obama to explain what he thinks he could get out of such talks, the Weekly Standard's Michael Goldfarb writes.

Perhaps in its rush to finish work before Memorial Day, Congress sent President Bush the wrong version of the $290 billion farm bill, showing that lawmakers can't even do pork right, according to The Corner's Kathryn Jean Lopez. In the emergency war-spending bill debate, Obama and Clinton need to get behind an amendment calling for troop redeployment out of Iraq that's already backed by Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.), writes MyDD's Josh Orton. And Rep. Robert Wexler (D-Fla.) is correct to raise the specter of impeachment hearings, one of the few powers Congress has to compel Karl Rove to testify before lawmakers in the case of jailed former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman (D), according to Daily Kos's Kagro X.

The vote to override President Bush

A report that Chinese officials interrogated Guantanamo Bay detainees has liberal bloggers disgusted with the Bush administration

Though Barack Obama has now clinched a majority of pledged delegates, his bid for the Democratic nomination remains shaky to bloggers.

His insurmountable pledged delegate lead, gained Tuesday after his Oregon win and Kentucky loss, should prompt superdelegates to finally move his way, writes Jonathan Singer at MyDD. But his Kentucky drubbing -- he won only 30 percent of the vote while Hillary Clinton netted 65 percent --

News that Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) has a malignant brain tumor prompted posts of encouragement and expressions of sadness from all over the blogosphere. Meanwhile, a battle between the Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton campaigns over sexism and last minute looks at Kentucky and Oregon also have bloggers talking.

More information, including a prognosis, will soon be coming out, but the initial news that Kennedy has a brain tumor is awful, writes Daily Kos

Hillary Clinton is showing no signs of dropping out, instead defying pressure and running an ad in a June 3 primary state, liberal bloggers find. And the Iraqi government has claimed sovereignty over its country as a new offensive succeeds in Sadr City, conservatives declare.

Clinton is not listening to anyone telling her to drop out of the Democratic primary, including former Deputy Treasury Secretary Roger Altman, Andrew Sullivan says. A new television ad in South Dakota, one of the last states to vote, means she is pressing on to the end of the trail, TPM Election Central

With Barack Obama about to clinch a majority of pledged delegates after Tuesday's primaries in Kentucky and Oregon, pro-Obama bloggers are becoming more magnanimous toward Hillary Clinton. Obama, meanwhile, continues to take hits from the right over his position on Iran. But all bloggers are down on Republicans running for Congress this year.

Obama should win Oregon by double digits -- 13.8 percent, to be exact -- writes Poblano, whose analysis of the Indiana and North Carolina primaries was dead on. Though Obama is nearing the nomination, no one should forget Clinton's "dedication, perseverance and indefatigable drive," qualities that should make her a role model for both women and men, writes Obama supporter Arianna Huffington. They should also know that Clinton has some juice left, as she does better against John McCain than Obama does in 13 rural battleground states, according to a new poll highlighted by TalkLeft's Jeralyn.

Online supporters of McCain, however, are completely focused on weakening Obama. Though the Democrat said over the weekend that Iran "didn't pose a serious threat to us," he contradicted himself Monday by saying that he's "made it clear that the threat from Iran is grave," according to Power Line's John Hinderaker. Obama should fire his foreign policy adviser Greg Craig, since he once represented a Panamanian lawmaker whose indictment on murder charges Obama cited as a reason to vote against a free trade deal, writes RedState's Soren Dayton. And Obama's wife, Michelle, shouldn't be exempt from scrutiny, either, since she has campaigned vigorously for her husband, writes Power Line's Paul Mirengoff.
