Howie Carr has a few words to say about Mitt Romney’s choice for a running mate in the Massachusettes goveror’s race.

Remember when the first George Bush said his pick for vice president would “tell all? Then he selected Dan Quayle. Not that it will matter a hoot in the fall, but this is one of those tell-all picks.

Mitt’s decided to run with Mrs. Thurston Howell III.

Dohh! I had such high hopes!

I sure hope this is better than some of the other Clancy adaptations (except of cource, "The Hunt For Red October").

First of all, it’s an amazing film. Even though they changed quite a bit from the book, it feels more like a Tim Clancy film than any of the previous ones. In the first half hour or forty-five minutes or so, a lot of different characters and places and stories are introduced, and the movie slowly at first starts to bring all these different parts together, and about halfway through, when all hell breaks loose, the movie just races from that point on. It’s really exciting, and the tension was almost unbearable.

Well, at least this sounds very Clancy-sh. I hope they pull it off!
