I got quite obsessive about it during the election. I'm still engaged with what's going on and consuming quite a bit of news and opinion writing, but I'm not checking as many sites or checking what I do with the same frequency.<BR/>Farleyfarleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16216422133521281819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622360940858462507.post-89697298356822176122009-02-28T07:32:00.000-06:002009-02-28T07:32:00.000-06:00Brent, I know your kind of conservatism challenege...Brent, I know your kind of conservatism challeneges the stereoptypes.<BR/><BR/>Sarah, my husband is an Economist fan.

The game's over. I'd rather not go into the locker room where it stinks.

Now? I read the headlines about what goes on, but I am sure lots goes under my political radar.My brother reads the Economist and maybe I should buy it so I can stay up to date.
