These articles are interesting and I have to accept that I’m not going to write much about them on my own. So, if you’re interested, here are some links for your reading pleasure — and your discussing pleasure, if you’re so inclined. Feel free to add your own in comments. [- Greg D]

Looks like we already have a candidate for statewide office in 2014!

Written before election day, too. Check out his book “The Political Brain” when you have a chance.

Well, OK — maybe I will have to write about this one more. I denounce it. Who’s with me?

“Leftward tilt” hitting America.
