Starting now, Boston Confidential will be undergoing a format change.  I recently got a new job, started a new blog on an entirely different and unrelated subject, and diversified my extracurricular interests beyond the web.  For these reasons, the classic weblog format Boston Confidential has traditionally followed is somewhat inappropriate and unrealistic.  I no longer have the time or the inclination to post on a daily basis.

That said, Boston Confidential isn't going anywhere.  Rather, I will now be posting more infrequently (as if that were possible, you say) but in more depth.  Each entry from this point forward will essentially be a short essay, hopefully offering a deeper, more well-thought-out analysis of its topic than might previously have been offered.  Sort of quality-over-quantity, light-on-fluff stuff.  In other words, no more of this, this, or this. 

I think it plays. 

Look back soon for a discussion on the language of Presidential electoral politics, how it has changed, and what it might indicate for the future.
