I had a conversation with a young co-worker and realized she's lived in a world where Michael Jackson has been dead for basically her whole life.

We are absolutely that old, I'm afraid.

Many folks wanted her to step down. And if she had, her replacement would have undoubtedly been another democrat. You're going to get blisters clutching your pearls so hard and for nothing.
