I knew the late Du Page County (Illinois) Chief Judge Alfred Woodward well. One very warm summer night a number of decades ago ago he came to my house to informally lobby me (a county elected official and a GOP precinct committeeman) on behalf of his choice for county clerk in a hotly-contested upcoming election for the office.

We sat together outside on my patio chewing the fat for several hours about political things and cabbages and kings.....until we noticed it was 1 AM ! It was a rather memorable evening for me and I think of it often when I see his son on TV.

I think his son, Bob Woodward, became liberally-tainted along the way, perhaps beginning in his years at Yale, most probably during his journalistic stint at the Washington Compost.

However, I agree with you, Flaglady....when I watch Woodward now on TV he is definitely moving more to the right. Perhaps some of the solid middle-west conservatism of his dad is in his genes and is slowly coming to the fore as he ages.

There's always hope.
