After last weekend's narrow escape, it seemed obvious that Harvard isn't about to go flip-flop just yet, if ever. And besides, the big upset which seems to be scheduled each year occurred early this time around. Cornell, stand up and take...

Shapiro then goes on to attack me for this, saying I've dissolved my personality into the party, that I give "we" answers to "me" questions, and so on. This...
