You know what? You are a nerd. A political nerd. This isn't

sometimes take things too seriously. If someone jokingly asks me
why
something isn't working, I'll miss the light hearted humor and
delve
into a long and protracted dissertation why it doesn't work and
what's
required to make it work and why it broke in the first place. Only
after stopping to catch my breath will I notice that those around me
are
either chuckling or their eyes have glazed over.





Someone you've heard of who has a nightly TV political talk show and I
have discussed in emails this very attribute we share.

So has Matthews invited you to appear on his show? I actually like
him, strange as that may sound. He's knowledgeable and quick witted.
Mostly I get a kick out of seeing him get so wound up he can't get
his words out coherently. Yup, he's another political nerd.
