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:
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).

Keeper of the Keys
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.
