Friday Afternoon Reading

Joe Carter, who was temporarily Huckabee's rapid-response man (and turned out the best mass emails of any campaign's communications shop), on his campaign-trail experiences, and what conservative elites don't get about "Reagan conservatives." Jim Fallows on the post-caucus stagecraft. Chris Orr's top ten films of '07 (as well as other year-end awards). Jack Shafer on Bill Kristol, Times columnist. Matt Zoller Seitz on There Will Be Blood - but only after you've seen it. And Tim Noah and Armond White, as well. (I'm still sorting through my own thoughts on the film, but you can find them in the next NR.) Robert Royal on Sarkozy's trip to the Vatican.
