As in Let’s Make a Deal, choosing Door No. 2 carries great risks. So does choosing Obama.

Four years ago today, the day the Legal Insurrection snowball started rolling down hill, the day after which there was no turning back, the day which meant I never would be a Czar in Obama's America, the day on which I posted Obama is “Door No. 2″: Obama...
October 12, 2008, a day which shall live in infamy. The day of the first post at this thing called a blog which some guy decided to call Legal Insurrection: Obama is “Door No. 2″ It seemed like a good idea at the time. Three years later the scorecard shows over 9,750,000...
