A scheduling note for readers: I’ll be posting irregularly for the rest of the week. I will, however, be around, and I still intend to publish content — including the jobless-claims chart tomorrow and Chronicling Mitt’s Mendacity on Friday — but I’ll be away from my desk this morning, and won’t resume the usual schedule until Monday morning.
That said, Maddow Blog will still have posts for your reading pleasure — Tricia has already published Morning Maddow — so stick around.
