    I remember rumors about Lester being the father years ago. And I'm pretty sure Mrs. Orbach died some time this spring.

    @louise: Yes, she died of pneumonia in April. You'd think the Post would've mentioned that...well, no, I guess you wouldn't.

    Well, she plays piano pretty well which is a lot more than most young recording artists can do these days.

    Wow, she made that song almost listenable. Still not watchable, though.

    Since there's no residency requirement for the Senate, he should nominate Caroline Kennedy.

    That would end all the NY infighting.

    Lemme get this straight. Under normal circumstances the Senate wouldn't scrutinize an appointee to the Senate?

    @Weegee's bored: Nope.


    And under normal scrutintances, they wouldn't circumsize one either.

    @Weegee's bored: I don't think most politicans scrutinize themselves very closely. Doing it to others would just set a bad precedent.

    @Weegee's bored: Questions and scrutiny are good. Perhaps had more scrutiny been given before his election, Blago wouldn't be gov.


    In any case, I don't see how this can play out without a special election for the senator. I mean, I understand the logistics and legalities of how it could happen via appointment at this point...but I imagine the poor sap appointed would be ruined, even if (S)he had nothing to do with any of this.

    you're right -- the world isn't supersaturated with prafluffery con law scholars. screw you, blago, for denying me the opportunity to read a slightly different take on a slightly different issue on an obscure fact pattern.

    @harvey_wallpaper: Supersaturated with prafluffery? That sounds like something from Top Chef.


    I could just hear Judge Tom Colicchio now: "Did you even taste this before you put it on the plate? It's totally ... supersaturated with prafluffery!"


    (Speaking of which, Gawker Top Chef live blog starts here on Gawker tonight at 10.)
