Jon Henke, who quit blogging at QandO to run the Republican Senate new media outreach effort, has left that position and move to a job with New Media Strategies. He will be working for the Fred Thompson campaign among, presumably, other clients. Congratulations, Jon.
I do not choose to support Fred Thompson because of the job; I've chosen the job because of Fred Thompson. Some months ago, after reading an excellent John Fund piece on Fred Thompson, I had a conversation with Mike Turk. Following our conversation, he put together a post making The Case for Fred Thompson — it is a compelling case, and one with which I generally agree. I am genuinely excited about a Fred Thompson candidacy.
I'll also be returning to blogging. I chose not to blog while serving in the Senate role, but I've missed it a great deal. I look forward to getting back into the conversation.
Thanks, Gaius! I’m very grateful.
Good deal: Jon’s a great hire.
If only Allen had hired him sooner things might be different here in the Old Dominion.
And if only the Post hadn’t been as relentlessly, openly and shamefully partisan as they were.
Sigh.
Thank you for bringing this happy news to my attention. I think it will be a good partnership for both parties.
