In Birmingham (And Elsewhere), They Love the Stacy…
Oh where, oh here has that Stacy Mac gone?
Oh where, oh where can he be?
With his shoes so worn and his Kia so strong,
Oh where, oh where, can he be?
The last we saw the intrepid and extraordinary blogger Stacy McCain, he was reporting hard from the campaign trail in Alabama. Here he is at a parade in MIllbrook, schmoozing with one of the candidates and his lovely daughter and here, introducing Ali Akbar to some of the local lovelies in Montgomery.
He’s also been running down some of the infighting inside the state Republican party centered around controversial Attorney General Troy King. This is the sort of hard, on-the-ground reporting that you don’t see very much lately, even from local newspapers. It is, I think, the future of blogging, assuming that there’s a demand for it that brings remuneration. Stacy has a tip jar which desperately needs to be hit often, so if you like the work he’s doing, do not stay your hand. If he can’t bring home the bacon after being in relatively warm Alabama while his wife has had to endure the Snowpocalypse, this piece by Bob Belvedere may not be such a comedic piece of fiction.
