Best of The Nation 2007

EmailNation

2007 has been a year of alarming news and amazing reportings--on the Iraq War, torture and unauthorized surveillance; the rise of private security firms and the burgeoning business of disaster capitalism; the beginning of a crucial campaign season; the growing power of interactive media and a climate crisis that worsens by the day.

Read Nation web editor Joan Connell's year in review of TheNation.com based on which pieces drew the most attention from our readers.

The year's not over yet so don't miss new Nation online reporting and look forward to a host of new Nation.com features in 2008 starting with a new guest blog coming up in January with Feministing founder Jessica Valenti starring as our first guest!

Huckabee's Christmas Cross
John Nichols | Mike Huckabee goes all aw-shucks when criticized for his Christmas campaign ad. But that's just the public face of one cynical political player.

Putin--Time Magazine's 2007 Person of the Year
Katrina vanden Heuvel | Al Gore, J.K. Rowling and David Petraeus are Runners-Up.

Bad Sex in the City
Joanne Wypijewski | There's something untrustworthy about a man who can't conduct a decent affair. Rudy Giuliani never could.
