Happy New year, Bro. I'm with you 100% on Jimmy Carter. A man of great integrity who truly walked the walk. He will be missed. As for the rest, always fascinating!
Happy New Year, Charlie! Thanks for another great installment! I especially enjoyed your thoughts about President Carter, and how the man's decency and honesty were ultimately antithetical to success on the national political stage. Americans do, indeed, prefer being lied to. And, along those lines, your comment regarding Spiro Agnew also brought a smile to my face. Finally, thanks for including Rocky Colavito -- I don't know if I ever told you, but I was related to Rocky, as he was my father's cousin. As a child, I met him before a few games at Yankee Stadium when his team was in town.

Thanks Mike. Happy New Year. Love the Colavito connection.
