The important journalism thing to remember is "the kids are off limits". OK, technically only children of Repubicans are off-limits. And also, only if you say something vaguely insulting, like "she's the town bicycle: everyone gets a ride" (guess who!). Demoncrat children are always targets.

At least, nobody with a brain should.

PS: Welcome back, Rebecca! Or is it back to back, back to your back, back in the game? Or just back?
