Congratulations to Former Slipster and (Congresswoman-Elect) Porter!
The New York Times, the Associated Press, The Hill, and many other media outlets are reporting that former Credit Slips blogger Katie Porter has won her election for California's 45th Congressional District. Anyone who knows Katie's work knows that she will fight for middle-class households. As happy as I am for Katie and for the country, it is bittersweet to lose a great co-author and research collaborator.
We also have been remiss in not congratulating another former blogger, Senator Elizabeth Warren, on her reelection. It is hard to believe that this modest little blog now has two former bloggers in Congress.
Hurray Katie! And of course not a liberal but a progressive, just like Elizabeth. I guess those BAPCPA lobbyists were right after all: We bankruptcy lawyers are just a bunch of Commie bomb-throwers out there vigorously recruiting dead-beats to welsh on their obligations to honest, hard-working banksters and payday sharks.
