...making one. But not more so than the guys who sat by the pool with John F. Kennedy and said nothing when he went off to the cabana. She protected what we once considered private, just like the guys. When a drunken Wilbur Mills took her to see stripper Fanne Foxe perform and declared, "I own her," Mom didn't report it. She also stayed mum after having dinner with Johnson the night after J.F.K.'s shooting, keeping to herself the panic in his eyes, his wild talk that he would be the next victim...

...actually a pretty good idea. Sure, the idea that this was anything like an unfiltered vox populi was bogus. Sure, the questions were no doubt thoroughly vetted before airing. (And why? Would it have killed us to have somebody ask George W. Bush if he snorted coke off a stripper's naked belly, or ask Al Gore if he shot Vincent Foster?) And sure, the questions, coming from "undecided" voters, by their nature represented a sector of the populace that hasn't paid enough attention in a year and a half of politicking to make up their damn minds already...
