Hilzoy Retires

The blogger known as Hilzoy -- staple at Obsidian Wings and spotted of late at the Political Animal -- has announced her retirement from blogging. Having recalled the ill-fated attempts to quit by PG and Andrew Sullivan, I'll believe it when I see it (not that I don't think she'll make a game effort, but this business is like crack, it is).

Still, if this is the end, it's been a great run. The entire blogosphere has been enriched by Hilzoy's presence, and her voice will be sorely missed.
