Thanks to my eight amazing years working in the heart of the Clinton administration, I’m THE expert on how the White House really works, what happens when it doesn’t, and who comes to visit (hint: EVERYONE!)  Here in the blog I’ll be telling some of those intimate, back stage stories, and commenting on the news of the day as the Obamas make their own mark on its history.

I’m also a political insider, since I was born in Washington and lived there almost all my life.  My Dad was a journalist, and the news of the day was standard fare at our house.  Thanks to the White House years, I had a front row look at both the inner workings of the world’s most famous House and both sides and both houses of congress.  I’ll be bringing these experiences and that perspective to commentary about the politics of the day.

And, did I mention, I have very sharp opinions?  Well, I’m proud to be a liberal, proud of what liberals have done for America, and VERY unhappy about the direction of the current political “conversation”.  Opinions WILL flow!  You may not always agree with me, but I promise you’ll never be bored!  And if you want to understand what’s really going on in DC, well, stop here first.

I look forward to entertaining, enlightening and informing you.  Thanks for stopping by!
