Ari Fleischer considering run in NY-19 ?

We interrupt your regularly scheduled 2008 Presidential gossip, pointless speculation and name-recognition-poll-parsing to bring you this bit of news from Political Wire:

Friends of former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer note that the New York native "has done just about everything congressional" except "run for Congress himself." Rep. Sue Kelly’s (R) defeat at the hands of Rep.-elect John Hall (D) "now opens up that opportunity for him," reports Human Events.

"Fleischer isn’t saying anything about any political plans, but fellow New Yorkers who know him well bet that he will make the House race in ’08."

Sweet.

Isn't it beautiful?

I am going to, like, light candles to whichever saint I can think of and pray it happens. Please, please, please, god, let it happen.

i have been talking about this for the past

hour or so with a couple Take 19'ers and the consensus is a hearty "run, ari, run"!! i just told one of them that if he does indeed run, i'll move up to the 19th just to be able to follow him everyday.

so, yeah, i'm lighting those candles as well. an ari run would be a blessing for all that is good and holy....

I'm downright giddy with anticipation

Maybe people should start fundraising for him? To dupe him into running?

I mean, the parodic/comedy/sheer exuberant enjoyment potential is so enormous, it's just staggering.

Ari

A former co-worker of mine dated Ari's brother. Ari's whole family seems liberal except Ari. I think there might be some weired teenage style rebellion thing going on!

Teenagers

...tend to have better hair than Ari, so he needs a better excuse.

Oh, this is going to be so much fun.
