 Best of the Moment

We Can Live With A Nuclear Iran

Paul Pillar | Washington Monthly | 5 March 2012

Pillar presents the most comprehensive case against war with Iran that I’ve seen. It won’t stop hawks from continuing to clamor for another foolish war, but he provides all the arguments you need to puncture bellicose fear-mongering Comments

Rogue Traders, Rogue Princes, Rogue Bishops And German Financial Meltdown

Mike Dash | Smithsonian | 29 March 2012

Dash takes us back to the 17th century for a bizarre tale of hyperinflation. Incredibly, "it was the product not only of slipshod economic management, but also of deliberate attempts by German states to defraud their neighbours" Comments

It's Time To De-Russianize The BRICS

Robert Kelly | Duck of Minerva | 18 March 2012

Robert Kelly offers a provocative post on Russia’s eroding claim to major power status. Kelly argues that Russia is past its peak: Its population is shrinking and aging and it is devolving into a "petro-state with nukes" Comments

Why Tesla Motors Is Betting On The Model S

Jon Gertner | Fast Company | 19 March 2012

"Tesla Motors almost certainly represents the most extreme test of the limits and capabilities of the Silicon Valley model of innovation." And now it's crunch time, as it prepares for launch of its first mid-market electric vehicle Comments

The Loneliest Superpower

Minxin Pei | Foreign Policy | 20 March 2012

We’re so accustomed to hearing about China’s rise that we rarely focus on its diplomatic challenges and foreign policy liabilities. This is a nice corrective for those who assume that China will eventually dominate global politics Comments

How To Survive An Atomic Bomb

Jason Lefkowitz | Just Well Mixed | 29 March 2012

Decisions you take in the 10 minutes after detonation are the most important. Find shelter immediately; basements of tall buildings are good. Don't be tempted to flee. Fallout is at its most radioactive now but drops off quickly Comments

Cheat Sheet - Inside Olbermann's Split with Gore

The Cheat Sheet

Today: Syria Declare Victory Over Revolt , Three Mega Millions Winners Sold , Romney Leading in Wisconsin
Cheat Sheet: Morning

March 31, 2012
OUSTER

Keith Olbermann will celebrate unemployment by going on David Letterman on Tuesday night. Will it kick off a successful Glenn Beck-style postnetwork TV career, or be his first step toward obscurity? The Daily Beast’s Rebecca Dana examines whether Olbermann’s departure from Current TV will be his ruin or salvation.

OVER?

The Syrian regime of President Bashar al-Assad has declared "victory" over a year-long revolt, saying on Saturday that it will begin withdrawing the Army. This came after Assad agreed to a peace plan proposed by United Nations special envoy Kofi Annan. But Foreign Ministry spokesman Jihad Makdessi claimed that the military remain in opposition cities "in a state of self-defense and protecting civilians" and will only gradually pull out "once peace and security is restored." Meanwhile, activists say fresh violence claimed more lives in the country.

JACKPOT!

If you haven't bought a ticket, chances are you're not a $640 millionaire. The winning numbers are: 46, 23, 38, 4, 2, Mega Ball 23. Nobody knows who has those numbers yet, but at least three tickets were sold in Maryland's Baltimore County, Kansas, and Illinois matching the largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history. The previous record was $390 million, which was split between two winners in 2007.

POLL

A new NBC News/Marist poll suggests that GOP candidate Mitt Romney will win the Wisconsin primary comfortably on Tuesday, as numbers show him with 40 percent of the support of likely Republican voters, while rival Rick Santorum sits at 33 percent. But President Obama, who carried Wisconsin by 14 points in 2008, will likely beat every GOP candidate if the election was today. Against Santorum, Obama leads 51 to 38 percent. Against Romney, Obama leads 52 to 35 percent.

CRACKDOWN

China arrested six people over the weekend and shut down at least 16 websites in a sweeping crackdown on Internet speech, especially on microblogs and social networking sites. The campaign was announced late Friday, and clamps down on rumors that former top government official Bo Xilai was dismissed in March because of a coup. The government said it was "cleaning up" the "harmful messages" about "military vehicles entering Beijing," as even comments sections were combed and shuttered.
