Lee Atwater

His rise and fall is such recent history, and so unpleasant, that you wouldn’t think it worth revisiting, but when I happened on Boogie Man: The Lee Atwater Story last night, I couldn’t stop watching. Libby Dole must have been in tears, watching it. Want to relive that uncontrollable urge to slap Michael Dukakis (or to punch Bernard Shaw in the mouth?) Check yr local listings.
