Returning

I had meant to resume blogging yesterday, but the end-of-semester crush is about to begin, so I may not be able to post as often as I'd like for the next few weeks.

In other news, the Post ran an interesting profile on John Leopold, incoming Anne Arundel County Executive and one of the few triumphant Republicans in Maryland this November. He's certainly not your average Republican, or your average politician, even: Few politicians start out life as an abstract painter, for example. There seems to be a dearth of politicians with a creative streak (Martin O'Malley being an exception), but I think it's something that needs to be encouraged.

UPDATE: In this vein, the Post profiles John Hall, the first bona fide rock star Congressman.
