War leaves an opening for Kerry

There are two presidential races going on: One here, one in Iraq. George Bush has to convince voters he isn’t losing the second to be sure of winning the first.
Putting all the polls together, it’s clear that the president has forged a real, if not rock-solid, lead against Sen. John Kerry. But in an odd way the race right now isn’t between Kerry and Bush but between Bush and the murderous insurgents in Iraq.
Bush’s lead in the polls is built in good measure on questions relating to the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq. On both topics — unlike, say, the economy or health care — the president has a fat lead. As commander-in-chief, he’s seen as a far steadier, tougher and more successful leader than Kerry would be.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
