The Job Hunt

Posted by DavidNYC

Some readers had asked, so I thought I'd toss this personal post-election update out there. I did wind up with several job offers for next summer in NYC, and I am very, very pleased with how things turned out. (For all my whining, it was worth it!) I've narrowed it down to two law firms, and I plan to make a final choice soon.

Thanks to all my readers who offered advice and encouragement!

What are the plans for this website? I kinda hope you keep it up and running, DavidNYC. I think there is real potential to use the blogosphere to promote the hard-left turn the Party is about to undertake. Anyone catch Howard Dean's speech earlier today? He is not going away anytime soon. I think it's time the Clintonites graciously bow out of the limelight for a period, and allow the progressive wing of the party a shot at getting some real activism happening. This forum can provide an excellent opportunity to inform ppl. of local meet-ups, discussion groups, and rallies in their area.

One final point. I would encourage all of you to lobby the DNC to appoint a Deaniac Chair of the DNC for the coming battle. Maybe even Dean himself. Give it some thought.
