Congressman Charlie Rangel said today he would support a Rudy Giuliani - Bernie Kerik ticket. He was joking.
Political observers say Giuliani's relationship with Kerik could be a problem if the former mayor goes ahead with a run for president.
Gee, you think? Here's some TalkLeft background on Rudy and Bernie. More here and here.
What a pair. Under their administration, Jeanine Pirro probably would be Attorney General. (Not to be confused with Jeanette Pinero.)
There must be a role for Judith Regan in here someplace. What cabinet post would Rudy and Bernie award her?
From the New York Post, Dec. 2004:
WHEN titian-haired publishing titan Judith Regan took up with former top cop Bernard Kerik, she thought she’d met her match. And vice versa.
But the illicit relationship came tumbling down, a friend of Regan’s told me, not when she discovered her married lover had another mistress. It ended horribly after Regan learned Kerik’s wife was pregnant.
After that jolting discovery, Regan ? as volatile, driven and foul-mouthed as any man ? began using other words to describe her lover. …
The yearlong affair, which began as Regan prepared to publish Kerik’s memoir, was an open secret in town. Yet Regan used a “beard” ? a male friend with whom she pretended to be involved. …
Since the news broke of their affair, said the friend, Regan has been “hysterical.” …“I don’t want to see him pulled apart,” she said.
Her friend replied, “Why the hell is she protecting him after all this?”
