Somehow I came to work today and by lunchtime I was a coworker of Ana Marie Cox. Literally the last time I saw AMC was after she and her husband drove me home from (what I think was) the Wonkette launch party at Julian Sanchez‘s old house Peter Bergen’s. And because she’s on the campaign trail I still haven’t seen her! But you can find her at the Washington Independent from now until the election, and I really, really hope we’ll be able to work out something longer-term.
What this goes to show is that if you’re a reporter who simply cannot get along with other people, and especially not with at least one of your old editors, you really ought to work here. Take it from Sridhar Pappu, Ana Marie Cox and Spencer Ackerman. You call us unemployable. But we’re actually more like a Team of Mavericks.

Howie Kurtz said Ana[l] Marie Cox got seven thousand dollars from her readers to continue her work through the election. So get her to buy you a drink.
And wash your hands — she co-chats at the Washington Post with the bathroom gay-basher Tucker Carlson.
Two is a team, three is a herd.
