Keeper of the Keys



This is as good as the quip AS published that included Rudy mowing lawns and the ghost of the late Ronald Reagan, from R. Stein:

John McCain and Mitt Romney played their Western shootout against a backdrop of "Air Force One," while being watched by "The Terminator" sitting next to the 100-year-old lady from "Titanic," smiling sweetly as all the candidates pledged their fealty to the ghost of The Gipper.

Anderson Cooper seemed awestruck by having an actual Reagan relic on the table in front of him, a leather-bound diary from which he solemnly quoted to the Republican hopefuls.

The scene could have used some Mel Brooks pizzazz, but it made up with non-sequiturs what was lacking in wit.


By the way, a lot reckon that Rudy ran such a terrible campaign. Myself, I think he did smart.

He got lots of money. He avoided the cold in Iowa and the rigor of New Hampshire. He spent the winter in Florida and got a tan. He did his patriotic duty for the GOP, who needed to field a warm body. He did fine (for him).
