::I am not speculating about a goddamned thing. The press is, the politicos are, the blogosphere is, the man on the street is.  This issue is hot, it is very much a "thing", people are talking about it, and people are going to want to have an objective source to learn about it. Whether their interest is contemptible or not, whether they should be interested in it or not, whether they should be interested in more substantive issues is beside the point... the fact of the matter is this IS a thing of interest, this IS a big deal, and to deny that seems to me to be wishful thinking or attempting a spin.  And I'll tell you what is getting old is editors pooh-poohing the issue, saying it's not relevant, saying it belongs in the 2012 Campaign article, saying it only deserves two sentences.  Ludicrous.  Absolutely ludicrous.
