Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Richard Lugar, and Arlen Specter all wanted Bill Weld to be Ambassador to Mexico.

And Jesse Helms killed his nomination. It was beautiful!!

The Swamp has been here for a very long time.
Snarl’n Arlen and Lugar.
No real surprise they would team up with Kennedy and Clinton.

Jesse Helms’s finest hour.

Add to that, watching him wipe the smirk off that mealy-mouthed RINO Tricky Dick Lugar’s face, who was content to rubber-stamp this Derp State Hillarybot RINO, was similarly magnificent.

We need more heroes like Helms in the Senate again.

That was a strange episode. I could not figure out why Clinton wanted him as ambassador to Mexico or why Weld wanted it, other than being tired of being Governor of Massachusetts. Or, why there was so much press? Can you name our current ambassador to Mexico? I can't.

Helms could be prickly, but would make a deal if approached right. Weld almost seemed to relish fighting with Jesse, though. That never accomplished anything.
