The beautiful thing about this guy’s site is that he effectively analyzes what constituents are doing to frame the debates to their requirements. The frame which wins is the argument which (usually) wins, so often the debates rage over how to define something.

He’s pretty neutral, too: instead of having a liberal or conservative bias, he seems to do a good job summarizing the framing desires of both sides. That’s rare, and cool.
