Author! Author! There's word that Senate Majority Leader Thomas A. Daschle (D-S.D.) is starting to talk to publishers about doing a book on the Senate. The topics would likely include controversies such as the Florida recount, the battles with President Bush, the days of the 50-50 split, the Jeffords switch that made Daschle majority leader, Sept. 11 and the anthrax threat and the war on terrorism. No doubt there'll be occasional mentions of his GOP buddy, Minority Leader Trent Lott (Miss.).
Daschle apparently has been thinking about doing this for quite some time and has been taking notes on important matters and then throwing them in a cabinet somewhere. He's got Washington superlawyer Robert Barnett talking to publishers. He'll then likely be getting a "collaborator," to help with the writing.
It's been an interesting couple of years and if Daschle is willing to open up some -- though it's unlikely we'll get a full frontal here -- it could be a pretty good seller. However, the proceeds are going to charity.
The last chapter, this November's elections, remains to be worked out. So the publication date probably won't be until the fall of 2003 or thereabouts. That would be excellent timing for the 2004 elections, of course.
