Steve's Pants

In response to Ben's current article, a seasoned GOP veteran weighs in to debunk the notion that Steve Minarik could be a latter-day Lee Atwater: "Atwater was cool, tick/twitch filled and charismatic...Atwater could be over the top, but he had his own kind of manic grace, which Minarik lacks. Atwater knew how to use people and make them feel good about it. "I can't picture Minarik playing with B.B. King or with one of the Rolling Stones or dropping his pants for a magazine photo." Whew!
