Baroké: It's Over
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/its-over.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 27, 2008. One could have reasonably concluded this a week ago but I believe it is undeniable now. If there was an October Surprise it would have been played by now. Even if McCain does pull something out of his sleeve, Obama's crisis management skills have been on full display this election season several times and they've been masterful. This edited clip from TPM sums it up pretty well. Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President. WFTV or WTF V.

Baroké: Economic vs. Social Populism
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/economic-vs-social-populism.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 22, 2008. Economic vs. Social Populism. Dick Morris argues completely against my posts on income disparity in his recent article, "The Populism Divide.". Not too surprising given the source but I do agree that a dichotomy of economic vs. social populism has emerged as an (if not the. Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President.

Baroké: Income Growth Despairity
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/income-growth-despairity.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 21, 2008. I am taking a fascinating class right now in microeconomics. This wasn't my favorite class as an undergrad but at a public policy school you get the chance to think about some basic principles of economics in terms of policy (of course) and how making certain policy decisions will have certain impacts. Today we were discussing various types of efficiency models and comparing efficiency and equity. Leaves an impression, huh? My Alphabe...

Baroké: Law School
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/law-school.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 25, 2008. I just got my LSAT score back. When I look to the statistics from the 2008 incoming class at the University of Washington, I notice that there were 44 people last year who applied to the law school in my score/GPA range. 2 were accepted. Some pop culture wisdom seems appropriate here. What the heck. I'm going for it. Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President.

Baroké: The Night Before...
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/11/night-before.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. November 3, 2008. Tomorrow, the world will be a very different place. We may not feel the effects immediately, but it will. Be a very different place. Almost everyone seems to accept this reality. Almost everyone. Just a few predictions found on Huffington Post. Electoral College: Obama 338 McCain 200. Matthew Dowd, former Bush strategist. Electoral College: Obama 338 McCain 200. Senate Seats: 57 Democrats 41 Republicans. Electoral College: Obama 343.

http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/its-been-rough-year.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 22, 2008. It's Been A Rough Year. Points out a sad truth for Seattle sports fans. After watching our poor pathetic Seahawks lose yet another game last night, I was sad and embarrassed to hear one of the commentators sum things up for our city:. So, the Seahawks are one and five, the Huskies are zero and six, the Mariners have lost 101 games, and their basketball team moved to Oklahoma City. It's been a rough year for Seattle.".

Baroké: Collective Preferences and Voting
http://adam-sherman.blogspot.com/2008/10/collective-preferences-and-voting.html
Thoughts on whatever, whenever. OK, mostly politics. October 23, 2008. Collective Preferences and Voting. I am loving my econ class. I just wanted to state that again. A fun question brought up in class: "Can a voting mechanism always find a socially-optimal allocation? Let's begin with the following voter preference scenario. Collectively, the group prefers A to B and B to C. But it prefers C to A. Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Adam Sherman, GPSS Vice President.
