After a string of debate victories, our own W. James Antle III apparently bowed out of the race last night. It's too bad. I thought we were going to make history--the first conservative pundit to win the Democratic nomination! I suppose they'll have to figure out some other way of "making history." It's going to be tough. I mean, neither Hillary or Obama has been trumpeting any aspect of themselves that might make this election historic, have they? If either of them mentioned something along those lines, say every fifteen seconds or so in last night's debate, I somehow missed it. Remarkable.

Alas, this is one glass ceiling that's going to stay in place--for now. God bless you anyway, Mr. Antle.
