"He supported the Equal Rights Amendment, freedom of choice on abortion and food-stamp programs.

Anne Kenderdine at the Chicago Tribune writes an obituary for John Anderson.

Chris Ladd at Forbes asks, "How did the Republican Party become a dangerous cult?"

And at New York, Jonathan Chait describes the "Republican War on Economics."
