From the Scrapbook in the Weekly Standard this week: "The Scrapbook's good friend and colleague, Weekly Standard contributing editor John Podhoretz, has just published an important book that belongs on every conservative's desk: Can She Be Stopped? Hillary Clinton Will Be the Next President of the United States Unless. . . . We hear an echo of our favorite political novel—Trollope's Can You Forgive Her?—in the title (although, of Trollope's great female leads, the one Hillary reminds us of most is not Alice Vavasor but Lizzie Eustace). And the answer, in both cases, is yes. But you'll have to read the book to find out how to stop Hillary. We predict you'll finish it not just girded for combat but surpassingly well entertained. While there will only ever be one Trollope, Podhoretz brings great good humor, uncommon wit, and a novelist's flair to his task."
What's the best of all here is that Trollope is my favorite writer.
