Pundit Boxscore for Tuesday 3 June 2003

NOONAN BREAK: Yesterday's Peggy Noonan column was not really a column; it was the introduction to her new book. Like Mary McGrory, she hasn't written an actual column in a couple of months. The WSJ says that "Ms. Noonan's column returns in the fall"; she is currently ranked fifth on the Lying in Ponds Top Ten.
