Some Heartening News

I was happy to read this piece by Dennis Kucinich re: the election results in Ohio.

I loved these cartograms of America where the United States is revisioned to more accurately reflect who we are.

And I thought this piece by Hendrik Hertzberg was just beautiful.  And while I'm thinking about it, a big shout out to the NewYorker for daring to write the pieces they do.  I was hopeful about the New York Times recently, but last week they jumped on the "mandate" bandwagon, and I jumped off.

I realized that the links in yesterday's posts weren't working.  So, I fixed them.  Check them out if you have a chance.  I think they're really interesting reads.

That's it for today.  More on my other blog.  Best to all.
