Report from Sacramento: Huffington, Denton, etc.

In the land where people actually do the things they talk about, Arianna Huffington has squatted down in the rice fields and given birth to her short-awaited bloggy blog. Arianna is an old friend to those of us in Sacramento, the land that grows failed political candidates. She comes by her name via the titular Michael Huffington, the man whom she badgered into running for the Senate in 1996, the most expensive (and reticent) non-presidential race in this once and future great nation’s history.
