Top Ten Foleygate Silver Linings for GOP ...
TPM wants suggestions:

http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/010168.php

1. Gets George Allen out of the News.

2. Can Potentially Be Spun As Outreach to Young Voters.

3. New Hook for Discussing Monica.

We need seven more. Anyone got any ideas?

From readers (with some editing) ...

4. Foley May Share Some Credit with Gore for Inventing Internet. (TPMR CG).

5. Katherine Harris No Longer FLA GOP's Most Embarrassing Pol. (TPMR DP)





How about...?:

Leadership's awkward conflation of "pedophile" with "gay" might be confusing enough to shore up support of Log Cabin Republicans.

1. I can't wait to hear that spin on reaching young voters
I can hear it now: We even have room for attractive, fit, young gay studs in our party! You only need to be below the age of 18 and we will welcome you aboard!

4. In a couple of years, they can pretend Foleygate was about Tom Foley,
the former Democratic Speaker of the House whom Newt Gingrich tried to smear with innuendo in 1994.
