Friends in Low Places

My son had a birthday today, and, without any encouragement or enthusiasm from me, ordered the World Wrestling Entertainment’s Summer Slam extravaganza on pay per view TV, live from Washington, D.C. I watched a couple of absurdly theatrical matches, in the most recent of which The Undertaker was upset by somebody or other. After the bout, the announcer said there were both Republicans and Democrats in the house. Whereupon the camera went to Ken Mehlman and his date (I think), followed by Ed Gillespie and some or all of his family, including a young girl who was obviously enjoying the proceedings. So I felt a little better about my son enjoying such low-brow entertainment.
Oh, yes–the Democrat in the house? Hillary Clinton.
