“I admire what you have been saying to which I can only respond "Amen!" because I couldn't say it as well -- especially about the story of America that needs to be told.”
“Huffington Post founders thought the celebrities from Huffington's gold-plated Blackberry were going to be The Thing … Instead … previously unknown writers, such as the consultant RJ Eskow … emerged as the unlikely breakout star bloggers …”
“Everybody on the Hill reads Eskow.”
