Exactly -- I hadn't thought of it in those terms, but you're absolutely right!

Lovely. Classy. I'd have preferred a longer list of his accomplishments but since they were too numerous to mention perhaps they just hit the highlights.

I didn't know Patti was born on October 21! That's MY birthday too! I think she looks good, considering what she has been through the past few weeks.

think about it - Levin would be Defense Sec'y in a Kerry administration. And look for Jane Harman in the crowd - she would be CIA Director. And Jaime Gorelick would be Atty General.

Uh oh Nancy at the casket- I have officially lost it.

I wish I couldnn't hear all the cameras clicking. Although it occurs to me that Nancy is pretty spry for 82.
