After a week managing the transition, vice president-elect Mike Pence took his family out to the Broadway musical "Hamilton."
People who call themselves "progressives" claim to be forward-looking, but a remarkable amount of the things they say and do are based on looking backward.

After president-elect Donald Trump's 10-15 minute scheduled get-to-know-you with president Barack Obama ran an hour and a half, too many of my friends who ought to know better contacted me with some variant of "maybe everything really is going to be OK after all."

Hillary Clinton hoped to win with votes of Northeasterners, including those who have moved south along Interstate 95 to North Carolina and Florida (44 electoral votes).
