Apologies for the lack of posts over the last couple of days. I’ve been busy with packing, traveling, teaching, and reading election coverage. I’m pleased with the outcome–particularly for my friend C., who volunteered for Jim Webb. But the results weren’t about Democratic leadership as much as about George W. Bush. Still, the news of Rumsfeld stepping down deserved a full, off-line celebration. More soon.
