I guess it was only a matter of time.

We’ve been watching the ranks of the Fainthearted Faction thinning week by week. Heck, it seems like Sen. Lieberman may even have left now (our Faction parliamentarian is still analyzing the Daily Show transcript).

So with the decreasing chances that they’ll get any congressional Democrats beside the perfidious Rep. Allen Boyd it was probably inevitably that they’d start courting congressional Democrats who’ve already died.

The Post has the story.

P.S. As long as we’re on the subject of Allen Boyd, we might speculate that there’s some chance ole’ Allen is looking for a way to climb back in from his solitary Democratic Social Security phase-out branch. Do you have the chops to write the strategy memo that’ll help Boyd turn tail while still holding on to some shred of dignity? Stay tuned.
