Whither Bill Kristol? The Suspense Lingers

In the words of a Times spokeswoman: "No."

Meanwhile, a message left for Kristol at The Weekly Standard, where he is editor in chief, hasn't been returned, while an assistant to Andrew Rosenthal, the Times's editorial-page editor, said he is out of the office this week.
