Well, maybe. Or she has had her 15 minutes of fame and will fade into
obscurity. Or she will sign on with Fox as a talking head and never
ever go away, just like Bill O'Reilly.

I don't see a lot of substance there, but I know many of our estimable
members differ. It would be interesting to re-visit the subject in a
year, but I'm not holding my breath as I'm sure we'll be haring after
something else then (and bringing up homesteading intermittently but
on a regular basis).

The other night I spent a little time looking at video reporting on
the campaigns from back when there were bunches of them. It's a fine
exercise for reminding oneself to put the exciting events into
perspective because they will soon be no-neverminds.
