    <summary type="html"><![CDATA[ <p>The very second (can you say "very second"?) blog post I ever wrote was called "<a href="http://vastleft.blogspot.com/2006/03/what-if-it-happened-like-this-1.html"> What if it happened like this, #1</a>."</p>
<p>I thought it would be a good format for showing hypocrisy, taking a story that people are blissfully unconcerned about and reimagining it in terms in which the villagers would get their torches out.</p>
<p>I never did write another one. Until Tony Rezko was convicted, while party insiders coronated his pal, Barack Obama.</p>
<p>Can you just imagine if he were a Clinton buddy, and their demonic Hillbilly Machine had made HRC the nominee?</p>
<p>Servers would be burnin' across the internets, wouldn't they? And every fainting couch in the Beltway would be at beyond capacity.</p>
