Pajamas Media is still taking votes for renaming the X21s. I still endorse the word “hybrids.” There is no indication of when the voting period will end, and no running tally of votes so far.

But just look at the new exclusive P.J. interview with Joe Lieberman! It’s a great interview, and quite a coup for our fledgling news syndicate, and you should watch it. But also notice how P.J. is describing it:

Senator Joseph Lieberman … is likely to be the front-running political hybrid in the 2006 race … This is the first of a series of interviews Pajamas Media will be doing with politically hybrid individuals.

The P.J. people have already started using “hybrid” in their reportage. This can only mean that:

1. They will be going with the “hybrids” label; or

2. They will be going with that ghastly “PHI” acronym; or

3. They aren’t going with either of those labels, even though their own reporting proves “hybrids” is the most apposite descriptor of the X21 class.

If you haven’t done so yet, please go vote for “hybrids”!
