p> MARY GO-ROUND br> Re: The Prowler’s Hughes Behind the Scenes : /p> p>Every time I see Mary Matalin’s face on television I’m reminded that Washington is the only city I know of where you can find fame, fortune, etc. by running perhaps what was the most incompetent political campaign of modern American history (that is up until the Gore campaign of 2000). Of the many virtues of George H.W. Bush, loyalty to friends like Mary does not rank very highly with me. Oh well, at least Mary and ole Snakehead have decamped from my native and hitherto largely, unspoiled Shenandoah Valley to the more swampy terrain of Old Town Alexandria — more natural terrain for the Ragin’ Cajun. br> — Bill Harrison br> Arlington, VA /p> p> Everyone’s worried that MM will spill GOP secrets to hubby James Carville after hours. What if the reverse is true? MM relates Dem schemes, risky or otherwise, to her political peers in D.C., after eavesdropping on phone conversations, perusing mail and generally just paying attention to JC’s ravings. She is in a good position to do this sort of thing, especially since James cannot stop running his mouth. br> — Paul B. Garrison br> Greybull, WY
