Jimmy Breslin talks about what it was like to be Norman Mailer's running mate when the late author ran for mayor in 1969.
ahhhk...angry man in the morning.....
Forget about State of New York City. Go for Republic of New York City.
Concurrence with Mr. Breslin: fyi: Louisiana was a blue state - you get what you pay for! Let them pull themselves up by their own bootstraps, ala the regular Republican refrain instead of now after the fact being subsidized by big government spending!
Correction: I meant La. was a red state.

Michael - I saw your copy of the Mailer-Breslin poster. It's beautiful. I couldn't make out the artist's name, can you tell me who it is? Thanks for posting it, Julie
