Been watching The West Wing again, and the repeated references to Roll Call caught my interest. I was thinking about subscribing to Roll Call until I noticed that the print subscription is $455 and the online-only subscription is $285 for a year. If I had time to read it cover-to-cover every day, I might consider that worthwhile, but seeing as I would probably only find time to skim it daily (if that) maybe a bit overblown.
Still, I'd like to find a site or news source that's similar in depth and that isn't right- or left-wing. Any suggestions?
The latter is run by Andrew Tanenbaum (yes, *that* Andy Tanenbaum), and *I* don't think it skews, but that could just mean his politics agree with mine (which is slightly left anywhere it isn't libertarian, except strongly pro-gun).

There are two papers that cover the hill. Roll Call is the older of the two, but The Hill is free. http://www.thehill.com/
(Both are free if you work on the Hill; they deliver a paper for every staff member in every office)
My two jumping off points are http://www.politicalwire.com/ and http://www.electoral-vote.com/
