I had the exact same reaction to his boast that Jason Zengerle did. One other thing struck me. Whenever a Republican administration gets into trouble, there are always calls for some “gray beards” or “wise men” to be brought in. Why is it that for 20 years, it has always been the same wise men? It’s always Baker, or the other Baker, or Gergen, or Duberstein. And they say the administration is insular.
