Why it matters
Eric Zorn wrote a great column today saying goodbye to the Nicarico case. The Trib editorial page has forgiven Ryan and I would be willing to had he addressed the issue forthrightly and with some courage that he certainly has shown in his personal life. He has not. He chose to play it safe and today he will lose not because of this case, but because his strategy for dealing with this case is how he ran his campaign.
Birkett is a punk. Make him pay.
