Then again, anonymity can protect the innocent as well as the guilty. As privacy advocates will be ecstatically eager to remind you, Common Sense and The Federalist were both first published anonymously. In countries where governments don't respect free speech, anonymity is a priceless resource. Right now the Chinese city of Xiamen is trying to ban anonymous Web postings after citizens used the Internet to organize a protest against a new chemical plant...

Still, at least one of the nine U.S. justices, Sicilian-American Antonin Scalia, has some personal experience to work from. Last year when a reporter asked what he had to say to his critics, the brilliant judge responded...
...McCain's scrappy insurgent operation in 2000 had ambushed the behemoth George W. Bush campaign, and managed to nearly derail the then-Texas Governor's drive for the Republican nomination. Just as fitting, however, was the fact that McCain chose the Iraq War as the topic of his first speech...
