Obama in BerlinIt's
sickening interesting to watch MSNBC (and, probably, all cable punditry) in the wake of Obama's speech in Berlin. It's not at all about the content, it's more a question of how it fits into the larger narrative of the meta-campaign - who's up, who's down, who "gaffed," etc.
I bet "Cross of Gold" was reprinted in its entirety in every newspaper in the country within a week. All I've heard to this point is soundbites.
Travel UpdateBeen back and forth to Chicago pretty regularly over the last month, and am just sick of sitting on the computer by the time I get home, or to the hotel room. Sorry, y'all. Doing well, though. Tomorrow I throw the dog in the car and do a two-day drive to Milwaukee where the little guy gets to spend a month at my dad's place while I get settled. Still haven't spent minute one looking for an apartment, but there's no panic. I'll get there.
Thanks for all the well wishes, by the way. Looking forward to seeing everyone in December or sooner.
