...offices about DeLay have picked up sharply of late, an aide to the House GOP leadership says. The Majority Leader has become a punchline for late-night comedians; two weeks ago, he was the subject of the lead skit on Saturday Night Live.

...didn't go there because Stan had been a pretty good sport lately. He had even come to the launch party at Mango Cafe for my book, in which-he was well aware-he's something of a foil. He had sat there smiling as I'd read aloud some of the Stan-versus-me parts. And of course, Stan knew how the book ended, and still he came to the party and back to the house afterwards for a beer. He didn't buy a copy, mind you, but he did congratulate...
