With wall to wall coverage of the party conventions, the Politics blog may not need to bring you news of the latest on the US elections.

In case you missed it, John McCain chose Alaskan governor, Sarah Palin as his running mate.  See the New York Times report here.

And Barack Obama’s acceptance speech appears to have gone down well.

But I thought I’d bring your attention to some quality on the significance of the Obama nomination, each penned by historians.

Simon Schama writes in today’s Guardian, and Tristram Hunt comments in the Times.
