I read his blog occasionally, but haven't read any of his straight opinion stuff in The Hill (it is in The Hill, right?)

A couple of questions which might be worth answering:

1) Who are his connections in the gubmit? What topics are they interested in, and about which topics does he post "inside info" most frequently?

2) Has he been... erm... mysteriously silent on any topics lately upon which he used to spend lots of time?

I have to admit that this has piqued my interest. He doesn't seem the sort to go making grandiose statements without following through.

On the other hand, lots of journalists in DC wants to be Woodward & Bernstein to Bush's Nixon. The temptation must be huge to think that you have "the" story. But the American public is so damn fickle. They didn't even give a damn about the torture until the photos showed up.
