Common Law

Today, Martin and I received our first jointly addressed mailing. We also got a mailing from Jeremy's opponent, Brad Wolbert, but that was just addressed to 'Dear Neighbor'. How impersonal. I'm not sure which form of address I like less.

Also, did I really need to blackout our street address? I'm not sure about that either.

Editorializing

Screw you William Kristol. I get it that you're supposed to be the Right Wing Guy at the Times, the Anit-Dowd if you will. You get paid to bait liberals just like she gets paid to make up insulting names for conservatives. And you're great at it, even while passive-aggressively electioneering for one of the Democratic candidates. So thank you William for continuing to embiggen the political debate with little gems like this:

But we also see the liberal media failing to give Hillary Clinton the respect she deserves. So, since we conservatives believe in giving credit where credit is due, it falls to us to praise Hillary.

Douche.
