You can call people (registered…

The Obama campaign released an embeddable voter registration form that you can insert into any of your websites, including tumblr.
I don’t think you guys understand, President Obama is letting you get registered to vote from tumblr.
This must be what life was like for The Jetsons.
Yeah, this is pretty rad.

Valerie left this in our inbox yesterday, before we knew what today’s decision would be:
In January of 2010, I had landed a job as an assistant teacher for a preschool daycare program at my mom’s church. It wasn’t full-time, but it was sufficient, and I knew I’d enjoy playing with the kids,…

The New Hampshire primary is tonight, and the Republicans are going to be getting the headlines. But did...
