Midterm Dispatch


Mudd Library
Here.

A quick break from the soul-crushing midterm week: In A-Level of Mudd (our library), you can get a scalp massage. And free food. And free coffee. Awesome.


In other news, I strongly encourage everyone to read the following two posts from Ezra Klein (here and here). Maybe this will whet your appetite:

A couple older writers have asked me what happens if Obama wins the election and loses the white working class, and seemed confused by my reply that "he becomes president." The emergent post-McGovern coalition uniting the professional class with minorities with the young and with the poor is not, as far as I can tell, considered a particularly legitimate demographic coalition. Too many of its members drink Starbucks coffee or something.

Sorry I'm too busy to blog for real. Maybe tomorrow...
