The Watcher’s Council has announced its winners for last week. First place in the Council category was Joshuapundit’s Schooling Dave Weigel On ‘Incivility’.
First place in the non-Council category was Bruce Kesler/Maggie’s Farm’s with Jawohl, Mein Professor, informative and timely.
You can see the full results here.
There’s a serious problem here with either the field or the judges.
I think it’s actually better than it was six months or so ago. I didn’t vote for either one of the winners.
When I joined the Council it was significantly more centrist than it is now. I replaced Joe Gandelman and for several years after that about half the Council was notably centrist. If I were to resign it would become, shall we say, significantly more ideologically cohesive. However, I’d be writing for a more ideologically cohesive group, too, which I don’t necessarily think is a good thing.
