Transition Politics!
Sorry about the slow blogging yesterday—the end of the semester can catch up on you. A few transition links:
* Change! Obama likely to keep Gates at Secretary of Defense, at least for a while, and unlikely to radically overhaul controversial Bush administration intelligence policies.
* Change! What we need is a liberal shock doctrine, says Rick Perlstein.
* Good has a visual accounting of the first 100 days of various presidents.
* How to get tickets to the inauguration.
* 59% of Americans look forward to one-party rule.
* And marriage equality destroys marriage in Connecticut today.
