I originally posted this on dailykos about five years ago. Watching the GOP struggle to define itself and to try like hell to position our Democratic brand again makes me think of this piece.
So... here:
I think Michelle likes me. I saw her and a friend talking and giggling and pointing at me. That's a good sign, right?
Dear Diary,
The cute girl at work spontaneously sat in my lap today. I think it was spontaneous. I know I didn't see it coming. I got all red, and was very embarrassed in front of my fellow employees. I was uncomfortable, and thought about complaining to the boss, but then they would all think I was gay, so I did nothing.
I blogged as a front-page contributor at dailykos (under the name "theoria") from six months or so after the start of the war in Iraq to the end of what was sadly only Bush's first term. I'm going to republish my blog posts here over the course of the next couple of months.
