Connie, Phil, and now Deborah...they should make a movie called "Night of The Living Has-Been."

Only difference is Norville is very conservative, which is why she didn't last the first time and won't be picked this time.

The upper crust NYC private school scene is like any other small town. I am lucky enough to be a part of it.

Ms. Norville and her husband are among the most "present" of parents, with one or both of them doing the daily child drop-off, not delegating the task to "staff" as many many of their peers do. They are also very generous with funding the schools, far far above the $20,000/year/kid tuition.

I don't know about her politics, but she passes "my" test of being, as best as I can see, a good parent.
