Are you speaking of Joe Gandelman? I was acquainted with him back when he blogged on Dean’s World. A good Joe, excuse the pun.

I don’t think Joe wrote the piece I’m thinking of.

Casey –

While I find its publisher to be a good guy, generous, and all those good things, The Moderate Voice is neither.

Wait… does that makes sense?

I know it's peripheral to the main point of this post, but if I hear one more person say "the Republicans have held this seat for 140 years" I'm going to go bloody postal on them!! Check Wiki on that district; I counted seventeen Democratic Party seat-holders since the Civil War, not counting Owens. So much for all those layers of fact-checkers, eh? Even some goober at pajamasmedia (from the Moderate Voice) repeated this falsehood. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised at that, since he echoed the same spin that the LA Times and the White House have put on the '09 elections.
