Let's all diary pimp shall we? Tired of writing new material? Want to summon up your still-relevant oldies? The Best of album that outsells the original?
I was reading some of my old diaries and thought, I just haven't diaried enough. Here's my all time favorite, the one I did after volunteering for Jim Webb, mainly because I wrote down stories that I'd otherwise forget.
I wrote some clunkers too (no need to link!) and one unpopular one in 2006 suggeting pay-to-play diaries, when the diary traffic was getting overwhelming.
Diaries allowed me to document my moment of coversion to Obamania as January 2008 (it actually happened a lot earlier, like November) and my prescient fear of Mike Huckabee coming out of nowhere (I'm so smart!).
In 2005 I saw an opening when Bush nominated Harriet Miers.
Of course, I always come up wiht any excuse to diary on my favorite topic: equal political rights for DC residents. See here, here, and herefor example.
This is very self-centered and meta, but after 3+ years on daily Kos and another year before that under a different username, I thought it would be fun to look back. Show me your best diary ever in the comments.
