QUOTE OF THE DAY
A Snapshot of Senator Ma Huang

This is an odd choice for quote of the day, not only because there isn’t always a quote of the day here, but also because the remark was made some four years ago and was spoken by an unidentified woman. Oh, well.

“Abandoning his GOP bid in 2000, Utah Sen. Orrin G. Hatch recalled a New Hampshire woman who asked to have her picture taken with him. When he asked if she wanted the photo to send to her children, she replied: ‘No, I’m just trying to finish off the roll.’

(And just four years later I’ll bet Mary Lou responds, when asked, “That guy? I don’t remember. Someone who ran for president. I forget his name. He’s that senator who really has a thing for ephedra.”)
