I rarely go to the front page of the WaPo. Instead I have four links that take me to specific writers. No eyeballs of mine will touch Broder - if I can help it. One of the direct links I have is to Shankar Vedantam's Department of Human Behavior. His column Monday, Vote Your Conscience If You Can, was an interesting read. Not terribly reassuring if you're "for" a particular candidate, however.
