I hope that those of you who rejoice in old-time American regional
accents did some of your rejoicing (in re another matter) by listening
to the election coverage on Air America, especially during the segments
when Mudcat Saunders, campaign manager for Senator Reed, was interviewed.
I don't know where that guy hails from, but it sure isn't the Conn.
River Valley; he's no paisan of mine; but I enjoyed hearing him, just
the same.
