POLITICS: Another Ugly Revelation
Mickey Kaus reminisces about "working on" the Fritz Hollings for President campaign in 1984. Does this mean that the Sultan of Snark was actually supporting Hollings' doomed campaign, or just covering it? Either way, it brings back memories of the time Hollings was being interviewed by phone for a TV or radio program (I forget which) and the interview ended abruptly because he was talking on a pay phone and didn't have enough dimes to keep the call going.
Which is not, you know, usually a sign of a campaign that's going anywhere.
