From the blog of Manchester Union Leader reporter Drew Cline...

"I just got off the phone with former congressman and talk show host Bob Dornan, who is considering. . . a run for President.

"I can't stand the thought of my party having as its three front-runners three open adulterers, Newt Gingrich, Giuliani, and McCain," Dornan said...."

Dornan's the only Paleo-con that was left pretty much untouched by all the recent DC neo-con scandals. He's got to be considered a legit threat to pick up the banner of the far right.
(more after fold)

"..."I've got one mission left in me, to come up to New Hampshire and tell the truth, and tell the Republicans you better find yourself a fresh face and not Rudy Giuliani who took his mistress around with him and then divorces Donnna who learns she was divorced sitting at home watching TV with her children.

"We need a fresh face if the Republican Party is going to appeal to an Orthodox Jewish, Evangelical or practicing Catholic."

Aside from adultery, Dornan's other issue is homosexuality, which he called "a cancer in my party."..."

"The missiles are flying. Hallelujah!" (none / 0)

"You put your god damn hand on that scanning screen, or I'll hack it off and put it on for you!"

Back when Dornan was in Congress, Dornan was considered the US politician most likely to re-enact Greg Stillson's nuclear apocalypse scene in "The Dead Zone."

(For the record, that scene in The Dead Zone creeped me out so much, I never was able to totally adjust to Martin Sheen playing Pres. Bartlett in The West Wing)

"...Dammit, whatever happened to the concept of accountability for catastrophic failure?..." -Al Gore
