A want ad I never thought I would see

July 12, 2008 By Christopher

I was browsing Craigslist and came across this job posting.  I do not agree with the premise that legislators should simply be delegates slavishly following the expressed preferences of their constituents.  I also think Mr. Capuano is doing a good job.  I’m posting this because I found it “interesting” and thought it might generate discussion.

Please share widely!

    I am not applying, I just want to know without hunting it down online myself.

    It is interesting.  But it’s way too late to get on the ballot, isn’t it?

    p>And I still can’t shake the feeling that — because Internet users by and large are not representative of the general population — this reads like a special interest group (albeit a well-meaning one) “buying” a seat.
