A socialite is not going to do this district any good in Congress."

But a "socialist" would, eh?

Reminds me of a "letter to the editor" that National Lampoon published not long after Hale Boggs's plane disappeared in Alaska:

"Dear Sirs, HEY,WE'RE OVER HERE! signed:Hale Boggs,Over Here,Alaska

RIP Mrs. Boggs.
I do find it interesting that Mrs Boggs, like so may other former members of Congress never go back “home”. That is because after all Washington, the seat of power becomes home and after they retire to that high paid lobbying job they never have to go back and see those hicks back in the sticks.

I only met her a couple of times but I do remember that she was extremely kind to my four great aunts who were Sisters of Mercy. They all taught at schools in the N.O. area for decades...long after the convents had been closed, she allowed them to have free use of her home in N. O. when they returned to the city to visit former students and school staff.
