Blogs on Washingtonian

Links from Chris Mooney, Atrios and Buzzflash. Ted Barlow wonders what John Lott has to do to get fired from the AEI. "Sadly, No!" helpfully suggests that with two more personalities Lott can start a boy band. John Quiggin asks "why so few individual conservatives and libertarians have dumped Lott". Kevin Drum says that Lott was stupid for continuing with the sock puppetry after he got caught once.

In fact, Lott didn't even pause. On Jan 22 he confessed to using the Mary Rosh sock and wrote "I shouldn't have used it". On Jan 23 his other sock was back posting again.

And naturally in the comment threads of the posts above there are lots of fake postings from Mary Rosh, Washingtonian and Glenn Reynolds. Weirdly enough, those three have something else in common---they have all posted five-star reviews of More Guns, Less Crime to Amazon.com.

And thanks to all the folks that linked, I got about 9,000 visits yesterday.
