NYTimes Downplays Occupy Oakland Destruction; Will Violence Show Up in

Even as Liberal Hopes Fade, WaPo Reporter Still Mocking GOP Candidate

In the last week of the state campaign in Virginia, Democrats are still desperately trying to scare voters into thinking Republicans are extreme -- and so is The Washington Post.
