A reader in the top left corner: “Derb—Indeed, gloating is a sin …and

Martin Luther said to us, ‘If you must sin, sin boldly!’ All the better to

realize the grace in God’s forgiveness. What a great outcome for your first

glow slightly, though, to think of myself in the rightmost digit of that

marvelous popular-vote margin.
