Broken Hallelujah

Like Jimi Hendrix coming onstage before The Monkees, Bill Clinton is scheduled to be the first speaker at the Democratic National Convention later this month; now to be introduced by wife, Hillary. Molly Ivins agrees: "Get the 'big dog' on first." She describes him as a great politician with a zipper problem in her new book, Who Let The Dogs In?



I saw "The War Room" this week. It's a behind-the-scenes at command central for Bill Clinton's 1992 election campaign with George Stephanopolous, James Carville, and others. They were all balling (uh, crying) the night Clinton won. It's really a genuinely very moving piece of film. It reminds me of how optimistic I was then in the 90s.
