From intrepid reader and former student, Steve:
I happen to know Jason Van Beek, the creator of the blog you now post on, and it was not created as an instrument of the Thune campaign. I went to law school with Mr. Van Beek, and it is my understanding that Jason created SDP while in law school to voice his thoughts on politics in general and his frustration over the Argus Leader and Dave Kranz in particular. Yes Jason is currently a staffer with Sen. Thune, but his blog was not created as an instrument for the good senator. I do not dispute that under the leadership of Jon Lauck the site became more or less a tool for the campaign, but I believe your comment in your recent SPD post needs to be revised slightly.
Right. I knew that. Actually, I did, I just wasn't thinking about it very hard.
