A blog goes silent

As a sort of sidebar to my last post — remember how Nathan Ballentine took up the cudgels for Nikki on his blog? Well, you don’t see that any more.

Suddenly, just as you might wonder with greater curiosity than ever what Nathan might have to say about all this, he goes silent. The Speaker has thoroughly shut him up, apparently. Or maybe it’s like with me — he’s busy living his life, and hasn’t gotten around to posting about it yet. Which do you think it is?

Meanwhile, Earl Capps, who is not under the Speaker’s thumb, is still writing about it. He’s using a rather reserved tone, though.

    Brad,
    You mean you don’t follow me on Twitter???

    You would have known I’ve been pretty busy today with all the phone calls and emails I’ve received (as well as a great rate environment for my paying job – mortgages). I’ve been swamped.
    I appreciate your sharing the story and, trust me, after dinner with my wife I plan to sit down and share some more transparency on the last two days.
    Check back tomorrow.

    Lee, for me it helps me stay informed by following links to news stories, etc. Not just political but professional.
    I follow financial folks who post about what’s going on, rates, etc, etc.
    It also helps me learn more about my constituents (some are on there) that I would not know othwerise.
    It’s nowhere near as “involved” as Facebook. If you want to try a social-networking thing out…start with Twitter first.
    Nathan
