Koufax Awards

The finalists for the 2003 Koufax Awards are now up at Wampum. The finalists represent a truly outstanding group of activists, writers and political observers. (Caveat: I can't vouch all of them, of course -- For example, the non-liberal blogs, which I don't follow regularly, with the exception of the Talking Dog.) All of the finalists are deserving of the honor and recognition, but let me offer a gentle recommendation for two of the nominees: The Rittenhouse Review by Jim Capozzola, for best writing, and A Matter of Trust, by Susie Madrak, for best single post. Jim's writing regularly reveals the beauty of the English language, and Susie's post demonstrates how the language can be corrupted in pursuit of ignoble goals (by Bush, not Susie).

Congratulations to all the finalists!
