Bob Bennett’s p.r. guy’s guardian angel is working overtime. Authors know the ultimate timing of a book is all a gamble, no matter how well-planned you try to be. One news story can completely lock you out for a week or more just as your big project gets released (ask Byron York about The Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy and Pope John Paul II’s death or one William J. Bennett about the second volume of his America the Last Best Hope launching the week of the Virginia Tech murders). And so here is Robert Bennett, with his memoir-ish type book released this week. It’s on, essentially, how he’s been involved in all the scandals than mattered in the last two-and-a-half decades or so … here he is, pitching his book (on Hannity and Colmes last night, for instance) just as one of the scandals he played a role in, the Keating Five, becomes relevant to the paper of record’s front page (above the fold!) and every political talking-head show there is. I salute this Democrat’s good luck. May that luck be bipartisan!
