Why he isn’t President Romney.
Mitt was a good businessman (and a good man, among the best ever to run for president), and the country would be in much better shape, both domestically and overseas, if he had won. But he had (and has) no discernible political principles or ideology, and cannot fathom anyone who does. The electorate could tell, and they wanted something more.

I’m having serious link issues today. Fixed now, sorry.
…you can’t get your childhood back.
As someone in my early twenties when it came back, I was a lot less impressed than the kids at the time. After the duds that were Eps 1-3, I’ll probably wait for it to be free on television.

Encouraging thoughts from David Brin on what he calls the “best year for space since the 70s.”
Looks like they’re roaring against the Vikings, but they still have three quarters to go.
[Update at beginning of second half]
Still ahead 17-15, but they’re going to have to keep scoring.
I’m in Columbia, MO, visiting with Patricia’s family, for the next couple weeks (until I go to Seattle for the Spacefest on November 6th. But I’ve got the laptop, so readers may not notice much difference.
Won’t face any charges for her crimes.
Of course she won’t. They protect their own, as long as they’re loyal.
…rejuvenated with an asthma drug.
Faster, please.
Hillary’s five biggest lies.
And the bad news for the Democrats is that she is now really inevitable.
My prediction: The FBI will recommend prosecution, Justice will ignore, than a steady drip of leaks from the FBI all the way through election day, and the administration won’t be able to do a damn thing about it.
