THE Commander in Chief!

Ma Famous DC has posted their "Media Ticket" -- who they envision making the best 2008 Administration if it were all journalists.  At the top of the list -- none other than Mike Allen, President.  Good call and we're certain he'll leave office with a higher approval rating than any President in history.  Overall, in our judgment, a well-rounded administration.  However -- notably absent:  Jon Karl, ABC News; Charlie Hurt, NY Post; Jon Ward, Washington Times (maybe a good Chairman for the Joint Chiefs); and Tommy Burr, Salt Lake Tribune.   Who else are they missing???
