AL GORE AND THE ALPHA GIRLS
Jjames Martin Capozzola received the 2002 Koufax Award for Best Post for "Al Gore and the Alpha Girls" (published November 25, 2002). Capozzola's record in the Koufax Awards includes two additional nominations for 2002 (Best Blog and Best Writing), three nominations for 2003 (Best Blog, Best Series, and Best Writing), and two finalist nominations in 2004 (Best Blog and Best Writing).
We're re-linking to Jim's post because if you think about Al Gore differently this summer than you did in the summer of 2002, when most Dems had co-sponsored the USA Patriot Act, and were lining up to co-sponsor the Homeland Security Act of 2002, and were pre-voting "correctly" in the final quarters of the phoney Iraq disarmament crisis, its probably because Jim wrote this piece and the light went on for the rest of us.
