What Not To Name Your Son

Apparently, if you want your son to be political commentator with any brains or insight, granting that it’s only an N of 2 I’m going to go ahead and say that you want to avoid naming him “Roger Simon.” I remain puzzled about why people who think that elections are decided by trivial symbolic issues virtually nobody will remember (let alone have their votes affected by) 2 years from now are actually paid good salaries to write about politics for a living.

UPDATE: Mea culpa; I didn’t read this carefully enough. In my defense, Politico makes it nearly impossible to detect satire, but still. I stand behind my comments about the other Roger Simon.
