Welcome!

I’m Eileen Smith, editor of In the Pink, a longtime political blog turned newsletter.

I was once on the cover of Governing Magazine for a special blogging issue. Everything’s gone downhill from there.

Thanks for reading. I usually publish on Fridays. Unless I’m trapped under something heavy.©

“In cyberspace, the Pink Lady is a wide-eyed, pinot-swilling, bimbo-ish blogger with a penchant for Starbucks, an addiction to presidential politics and a foul mouth. Alternately self-deprecating and self-aggrandizing, she shamelessly chases after famous politicians, mistrusts all desperate single women, and regularly shaves about eight years off her age.Karen Brooks, Dallas Morning News
