Girl, get me my glass slippers. I've got a date with the Prince ...

You know how it is ... you date someone for a little while, it's "interesting and significant" ... but in the end, it just doesn't work out. She has her graduate work at Harvard and you've got your own political career, but you manage to part ways amicably. Heck, given the right circumstances, she'd even ask people to vote for you in November.

What a strange world we live in now.

Yes...by now you'd think EVERYONE already knew about Drudge Report....

Doesn't John look dreamy? Sigh... (fluttering eyelashes)

Ahem. Didn't realize that Matthew Drudge had already given Courier-font love to this Intarweb gem. My apologies.

It does say something significant about the man's character (not that it should mean anything about his governing skills) that an ex-girlfriend and his ex-wife would endorse his candidacy. Were I running for public office, my exes would probaly throw something at a reporter who mentioned my name.

Yeah, Curley, I see this as a positive too.

If any of your criteria for voting includes "someone who won't piss off the rest of the world as much," then maybe a peek at past dating history (and the fallout therefrom) has some weight in the argument.

I wonder if anyone Dubya managed to feed tequila shots to until they relented to his obvious charms in the early 70's would speak of him in such positive terms.

I am not one to often use the word sweet... but that page is just so sweet.

Although (and I hate to sayit, but not enough to keep my mouth shut)... those books she's selling don't look very promising.

Do check out her front page, though... looks like this will be a limited-time engagement. I don't understand all the negative attention from the left, frankly.

Don't miss CSPAN's presentation of John Kerry humiliating John O'Neill on the Dick Cavett show in 1971. Oh, John O'Neill...what a sweetheart...I used to call him "swifty" and he used to call me "inky"...

Heard of it, but never go to it. Probably never would have heard of this otherwise.
