DP Moynihan

A sad day.  George Will, curiously enough, may have captured my feelings best in his Washington Post essay this morning.  Among other insights, Will wrote of Sen. Moynihan: “His was the most penetrating political intellect to come from New York since Alexander Hamilton, who, like Moynihan, saw over the horizon of his time, anticipating the evolving possibilities and problems of a consolidated, urbanized, industrial nation.”
