Can’t you make Althea Cole write less ... or not at all?

I have written before to say I can't make it all the way through one of Althea Cole's columns, and that's still true. Granted, our politics are different, but the problem is her verbosity.

Last Sunday I read every other editorial, by Todd Dorman, David Chung, Chris Espersen, and Sofia Demartino, whether I agreed with them or not. But I can make through about eight paragraphs of Cole before I have to put it aside.

PLEASE, either cut her entirely or at least cut her to half a page. If she wants to write a book, let her do it elsewhere.
