Pundit Boxscore for Tuesday 27 January 2004

SNOWED UNDER: Commenting will be light this week. First, we've been snowed in since Sunday afternoon's few inches of snow and sleet (here in North Carolina it doesn't take much). So the kids and my wife are home from school, I'm working from home and the dog is wondering why we're all here. Second, we're wrestling with the joys of college financial aid applications for our daughter. Third, I'm preparing some changes to the site which will be unveiled next week, when I switch from the final 2003 partisanship rankings to the first results from 2004.
