Take a non-subtle hint, Stephen. Your name dropping and obsession with the author-du-jour are topic killers. All you need to do is offer a substantive, relevant comment that is more that a reading assignment or linkfest. You want to work Worthen in? Put some of her actual words in not just a reference implying the deficiency of all who haven't sat worshipfully at her feet.
You can do this.
By state a topic, I meant something like "Molly Worthen on SBC stuff." Then actually quote her.
Any references to Birchers or other mid-20th century junk will be instantly dispatched.
Good luck.
