Truthout Live Blog: Election 2012
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12525-election-blog
All day today, and for however long it takes, Truthout's Mark Karlin and William Rivers Pitt will be blogging the election. Check in for regular updates on the presidential race, coverage of important House and Senate contests across the country, reports of malfeasance and voter intimidation, and more.
Big Money Breakdown: Why 2012 Is the Most Expensive Election Ever
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12561-big-money-breakdown-why-2012-is-the-most-expensive-election-ever
Mike Ludwig, Truthout: While the Obama campaign relied heavily on a groundswell of small donations from grassroots support, Romney's war chest came from anonymous big-money donors under the unfettered provisions of Citizens United.
Public School Teachers Spend Billions of Their Own Money on Student Needs
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12504-public-school-teachers-spend-billions-of-their-own-money-on-student-needs
Eleanor J. Bader, Truthout: Teachers' personal money is the most common source of funding for classroom projects. On average, teachers spent a total of $398 on school supplies in 2009-2010 and an additional $538 on educational materials.
Sensata Workers Gain Support for Full-Year Severance Pay
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12572-sensata-workers-gain-support-for-full-year-severance-pay
Yana Kunichoff, Truthout: The plight of workers at outsourcing-gutted Sensata hasn't prevented Mitt Romney, whose Bain Capital holds a controlling share in the company, from strewing the campaign trail with tough-on-China rhetoric even as Sensata's jobs disappear to China. But now workers have the support of their city council, which passed a resolution today echoing their demand for a full severance package.
Community Organizers Fill a Large Gap in Superstorm Sandy Relief, but It's Not Enough
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12570-community-organizers-fill-a-large-gap-in-superstorm-sandy-relief-but-its-not-enough
Sarah Jaffe, Truthout: Community groups worked overtime in Queens' Far Rockaways after Sandy. Seven years after Hurricane Katrina, our federal disaster response is inadequate, and communities of color continue to suffer the brunt of our collective failures.
Michael Winship | Whatever It Takes - If You Can, Vote!
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12558-whatever-it-takes-if-you-can-vote
Michael Winship, Moyers & Company: Making your voice heard is more important than ever in the face of big money and cynicism.
Romney, Richard Nixon and Las Vegas Cash: A Hidden History Repeats Itself
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12571-romney-richard-nixon-and-las-vegas-cash-a-hidden-history-repeats-itself
Thom Hartmann and Lamar Waldron, The Daily Take: Nixon and Romney both luxuriated in the patronage of casino tycoons thanks to the deep pockets of the same Mafia-linked company, the Sands Corporation.
Rebecca Solnit | The Fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse: Hurricane Sandy Rides In
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12569-the-fourth-horseman-of-the-apocalypse-hurricane-sandy-rides-in
Rebecca Solnit, TomDispatch: First, 9/11. Next, Katrina. Then Wall Street. Now, Sandy erases once and for all the line between manmade and natural disaster.
On the News With Thom Hartmann: Every Major Poll in the Nation Shows Obama in the Lead, and More
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12573-on-the-news-with-thom-hartmann-every-major-poll-in-the-nation-shows-obama-in-the-lead-and-more
In today's On the News segment: Republicans have hinted they will use a procedural stunt to pass their radical agenda if the Dems fail to defend 21 seats and the GOP takes the Senate; a number of state ballot measures stand to impact national policy, especially on immigration; a major accounting firm issues a new report warning businesses about the risks of climate change, and more.
