Harman turning to King Kaiser?

By J. Thomas Duffy

I don't know what to make of this.

Is it, like, throwing in the towel? ... Laying down the Queen when you know checkmate is inevitable?

Jane Harman, certainly, is capable of doing it herself.

As you recall, Miss Jane got herself into a messy little scandal recently (see here and here for some of the latest news).

Does she really need to hire Lanny Davis to go out, on camera, and piss-and-moan for her?

It will remain to be seen if Lanny brings the full monty (and does he lose the Faux News gig?).

Will Lanny retrain, and bring over with him, the Grand Central Locker Room Creatures, last seen pumping it out for Hillary, to start adoring Jane Harmen?

"Jane is back! The keeper of the light! All hail Jane! All hail Jane! Oh Jane can you see by the dawn's early light..."

The King Kaiser reference?

We defer to author, and primo satirist, Barry Crimmins:

While waiting for the Indiana totals, the cable networks marked time by reeling in some of the slack from the jaws of their commentators, who finally seemed to have worked through the denial stage of their grief over the terminal status of the Clinton campaign. Serious hilarity ensued on CNN when Clinton family bootblack Lanny Davis, accustomed to leisurely swatting softballs in such surroundings, was asked to try to explain how his candidate could possibly garner the Democratic nomination. His clumsy response looked even shiftier as Davis squirmed in a suit last worn by Joseph Bologna as King Kaiser in the "Boss Hijack" sketch in My Favorite Year.

And, now, Harman has a blogger (a very good one) planning on running against her.

Hope Lanny gets the suit dry-cleaned before that happens, so as to wash off all that Hillary karma soaked into it.
