If the Democrats could design a security leak, it would be to Jeffrey Goldberg. Why are they acting like they're unhappy with this thing? Right, they're not.

Yeah, yeah. It's 100% because of their numbers.

Well, I'm an actual novelist, unlike Harwood, so I'll give my competing image of Tom Holman. He's like a bouncer in a very big nightclub and finds some guys who've been harassing women in the women's bathroom and kicks them out the back door. And when they want to come back in the front door... Doesn't allow it.

That is just a pure cheap shot on Harwood's part to act as though this is racist, that it harks back to the Southern past and so on. Doesn't apply in any respect. It's a bad image, a bad metaphor, and it's prejudicial on its face. He can say it, but it doesn't mean much.

Listen, I grew up with Dirty Harry and Charles Bronson movies. We haven't even gotten close to that level yet. In the early and mid-70s, after the chaos of the 60s and the early 70s, we had a series of heroes. Buford Pusser, the southern sheriff, speaking of southern sheriffs, walking tall, who went around with a baseball bat, getting rid of all the scumbag. Yeah, in his small town.

We had a decade of vigilante movies where people practically stood up and cheered. And in one of those Dirty Harry's movies, it's interesting, there was a villain who ends up kidnapping school children who is let off earlier in the movie by a judge on a technicality, even though they have him. And then does even worse things. So America's in that mood.
