One of my faithful, longtime readers — a politically attuned PhD from Michigan — writes:
Charlie,
I don't understand the Mark B. stuff.
Too localized.
Can you add an appendix to fill us in if we are not cognoscenti?
Thanks,
Jim
Actually, I think very few of my friends — those who don't come to Drinking Liberally or obsessively read blogs — understand the Mark Kennedy/Michael Brodkorb stuff, and not simply because it is micro-localized. A signal for me to move on to larger themes, I guess.
Readers are free to add an appendix of links in the Comments, though.
