The Next Governor of California...

If there is any justice, of course. I can't tell you how unimpressed I am with Newsom, Villaraigosa, etc. Debra Bowen is smart, and she seems like a great person. Here's hoping we CA Dems actually get our acts together and don't nominate someone incredibly lame this time around.

The Man, The Myth, The Bio

East Bay, California, United States
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.
