...Eliza, are you nuts? They do. Ad nauseam. And they write about it too. You should know that - you're a stay-at-home mom and self-described feminist who writes about small triumphs and big miseries on an oft-neglected blog called the Bjorn Identity. Do you never look at any other parenting websites written from a female perspective? You're also a loyal New Yorker, who guards your West Village neighborhood against tourists who have the temerity to stop to admire it ("It's a neighborhood, people, not a theme park," you snap), so surely you've seen...

In that talk - on the subject of a Latino presence in the American judiciary - Sotomayor now famously said, "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness...
...McCain's selection of Sarah Palin to be his running mate fully consumed a GOP convention that was supposed to be focused on thumping Barack Obama over the head. And it may have raised questions about McCain's own judgment and seriousness. But, as we have been told ad nauseam since the surprise choice was announced last Friday, Palin has already provided one unquestionable, invaluable assist to the Republican campaign: with one sweep of her perfectly manicured hand, she has supposedly erased McCain's Evangelical problem and united the base that proved so key to George W.
