Is that a newspaper in your pocket?: Having scanned the lengthy paean to Fife Symington in the Arizona Republic and read in detail Michael Lacey's column in New Times, I am not sure whether:

• There are two Fife Symingtons (much like the multiple Symington financial statements).

• The Republic has a policy of forgive-and-forget unmatched in American journalism.

I know this is Arizona, the last frontier of the individual, but the Republic's promoting Symington for governor is repulsive. Any word of Fife resurrecting Charles Keating for state treasurer?
