Senator Crist just became a lot more likely

Club for Growth considers intervening in the Florida Senate race. I guess things work a little differently on the right--if there were a left-wing Democratic organization dedicated to purging moderate Democrats in marginal districts, and that had had as abysmal results as CfG, they'd be deader than disco, to borrow a phrase.

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.
