Got final pages from Esquire for my Feb issue piece. It runs 3-plus pages.

Also today edited my last-of-the-year piece for World Politics Review, as they won't be running columns between the holidays.

So, outside of the blog, my books are closed for the year.

I'll be back 4 Jan at WPR with my "Top-Ten Foreign Policy Wish List for 2010."

Ideas welcomed as comments.
