It's hard to buy publicity like this.

DEFENSE lawyer Joe Tacopina will be featured in a six-page profile in GQ under the headline, "1 800 Save My Ass." The story by Lisa DePaulo begins: "Suspected of murdering that blond girl in Aruba? Having some problems with your appointment as homeland-security chief? Made the mistake of having sex with Christie Brinkley's husband? Call Joe Tacopina, the best-dressed, smoothest-talking, hardest-working criminal-defense attorney going, and for a mere $750 an hour, everything will be okay."

Maybe Libby should have dialed that number.

    I just don't get it. This guy who graduated from bridgeport law school, who made a name for himself defending criminal cops, gets a spread in GQ like he's some kind of celebrity? He bills at what an hour? Please, I'd like to know his win-loss record. He's not even handsome. If you've seen him in person he's out of shape and has awful skin. Wonders never cease. Libby made the right choice, I dare say.
