I simply find DKos too hysterical and chaotic. I do go over when J or someone points to a diary, but never log in. The Finnish online news sites are usually the first things I look at in the morning, especially a business site called 'Kauppalehti' and the main daily 'Helsingin Sanomat'. Then I'll have a quick scan of the Salon. If I'm working in my home office I'll maybe explore more US stories during the day. 'The Raw Story' every day. You can't be me, I'm taken
HuffPo is an alright source, but it's got too much of the Los Angeles tabloid nonsense.
DKos is usually pretty reliable for catching the big stories of the day in the US, and for finding a few bits of what's going on under the radar. Mostly it's good for American liberals looking to find out what races we should be watching. And I think Kos has a pretty sharp eye for good candidates. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
