Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the ‘sphere, and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council.Then we vote on the best two posts, with the results appearing on Friday.
‘Nuff said.
In which universe is he living? Or as Mitt Romney said, “Is he really that out of touch?” Maybe what he meant was, ‘The private sector’s doing fine – well, at least Michelle and I are!”
This week’s contest in dedicated to the L.A. Kings for finally taking the Stanley Cup. And especially to this guy.
