Guess who has a new blog? Princeton University Press. PUP (they use the acronym) is run by my longtime friend Peter Dougherty, who, working under the late Erwin Glikes of Macmillan Free Press, edited my first non-Almanac book, Our Country: The Shaping of America from Roosevelt to Reagan. The PUP webpage features a Bloggingheads interview of economist and PUP author Robert Shiller by Robert Wright.

what is your prob

Get over yourself you trash

Michael Barone's stature as Political Scientist

Michael Barone has written his name into American political

science history right next to the legendary Professor V.O.

Key of Vanderbilt, with his 36-year-long series (and still

counting) "The Almanac of American Politics."

Whether Mr. Barone appears on a cartoon-level

TV talk show is of VERY little consequence!

McLaughlin Group

So, Mr. Barone, why did you lose your place among the regulars on the McLaughlin Group? My sources tell me that John McLaughlin didn't want you on the program after you called the Clintons "trash". It was one thing when you jumped on the bandwagon with the accusers who falsely claimed that the White House was looted following Al Gore's loss in 2000, but personally slandering the President and First Lady was outrageous and (apparently) unforgivable. After all these years one would think John would invite you back on his program; however, I never miss it, and I've never once seen you there since you made those very uncharitable and un-Christian statements. Perhaps it's because you were never willing to apologize to Hillary or Bill Clinton.
