    I vote, yes… she’s a gem and as a political historian she tends to put a lot of what’s going on into a larger perspective.

    I like seeing these. I;m not sure about spending $50/year to get them emailed to me. Not that I begrudge her the money – she’s doing good work. It’s just that I already get a lot of news from already paid-for subscriptions to the NYTimes and Seattle Times.

    Dear Jim,

    I sure wish we could view the article without downloading. Is that much more difficult for you to post?

    Sorry to come across and an ungrateful grouch. I do appreciate the gift of your labor, even if I don’t sound as though I do.

    Alice

      You can scroll through the post without downloading–at least you can on my PC. Also, you can subscribe to her blog and get it directly. Hope that helps.

    Jim,
    Yes, I would like to see more – hopefully she is capable of being bi-partisan
