I was out of

I was out of the office (aka TPM World Headquarters — yes, it really exists) most of the day today. So I want to take a moment to thank Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for spending time at TPMCafe today to discuss his new book Positively American: Winning Back the Middle Class Majority One Family at a Time and to engage with TPM Readers in a discussion of the book and building a Democratic majority. You can read Sen. Schumer’s discussion of his book here and his exchanges with readers in these two posts (#1 and #2).
