Rendell's Fox News Comment

This is a big deal in the blogosphere. The sheer arrogance of the Clinton campaign is startling--their actions recently seem to indicate that they think that they can use what Hillary called the "vast right-wing conspiracy" to their advantage. This is madness, though, since the Clintons are the ones being played overtly for the purpose of weakening the Democratic Party. The Clintons think they've got all the angles figured out, of course, but the strategy eludes me.

Problem: I have lots of opinions on politics and culture that I need to vent. If I do not do this I will wind up muttering to myself, and that's only like one or two steps away from being a hobo. Solution: I write two blogs. A political blog that has some evident sympathies (pro-Obama, mostly liberal though I dissent on some issues, like guns and trade) and a culture blog that does, well, cultural essays in a more long-form manner. My particular thing is taking overrated things (movies, mostly, but other things too) down a peg and putting underrated things up a peg. I'm sort of the court of last resort, and I tend to focus on more obscure cultural phenomena.
