What a week! There won't be another week like this for four years! We've had a leap day, a debate, SuperTuesday, SuperSaturday, and blog—only-knows what else in-between. We've ridden the high horse on the low road, thanks to the calm, reasonable, grown-up, adults-in-the-room Republican candidates. Thank you for letting me be part of your week. And thank you to the 28-plus outstanding bloggers who have kept us informed and entertained this week.
