Here are my BIG THOUGHTS on ANIMAL HOUSE and today’s moral sophistication.

Gingrich’s whiny ranting last night ought to be the end of him.

Meanwhile: The latest poll shows Santorum will a tiny lead in the MN caucus. Rumors have it that he’s even-money in the MO beauty contest. And he’s a pretty strong second in CO. That showing—with two thirds or a fourth for Newt—might give Rick his moment. I kind of agree with Pete that he doesn’t quite have the brains or the wherewithall in general to make the most of it. But he’s been an overachiever so far.

Other thoughts: Why is the Super Bowl so close and yet so boring (yes, I’m not attached to either team)? And why was Madonna imitating Lady Gaga (actually pretty well)?

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
