  • William Kristol is an elitist and proud of it. I predict that, when Donald Trump is elected president, Kristol will join the Democrat Party. He is no longer welcome in the Republican Party.

  • Cubs

    The Chicago Cubs are down, three games to one, to the Cleveland Indians. While I would rather be up, 3-1, than down, 3-1, I think the Cubs have a path to victory. They win tonight (at home) behind Jon Lester. That sends the series back to Cleveland. Jake Arrieta ties the series for the Cubs with another sterling outing. That forces a seventh game, and, as even non-baseball fans know, anything can happen in a single game.

  • Some of you will recall that I'm reading the 10-volume Encyclopedia of Philosophy (second edition) at the rate of two pages per day. I've been at it since 24 April 2007. Today I finished the letter "U." Among the entries I've read are:

    Ugliness
    Ulrich (Engelbert) of Strasbourg
    Unamuno y Jugo, Miguel de
    Unconscious
    Underdetermination Thesis, Duhem-Quine Thesis
    Unity and Disunity of Science
    Universal Properties in Indian Philosophical Traditions
    Universals, A Historical Survey
    Utilitarianism
    Utopias and Utopianism

    I read the two pages first thing in the morning. It takes about 15 minutes.

  • To the Editor:

    So here’s what it comes down to: Do we want a tight-lipped competent woman who made an uncharacteristic mistake using an email account, or do we want a loose-lipped incompetent man who characteristically tweets out venom without any thought of the consequences?

    REED H. DAVIS

    Louisville, Ky.

    Note from KBJ: That's one way to look at it. Here's another way: Do we want an immensely successful alpha male who, earlier in his life, engaged in male braggadocio, or a deeply corrupt and criminal woman who is a pathological liar? Choose wisely on 8 November. A vote for someone other than Donald Trump is a vote for Hillary Clinton.
