Does Domenici have Dementia?
Conrad Burns is finished, but his proud western old-crazy-guy values live on in the horrifying form of Pietro “Pete” Vichi Domenici, currently scaring the bejesus out of Hill staffers. Roll Call reports:

We had a number of reports Friday that Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.) was wandering the halls of Senate office buildings in his jammies.

But don’t worry. The 74-year-old New Mexico senator says they’re just “hunting pants,” with “two pockets like any else.”

Did somebody say 2007 was going to be awesome? Yes, we did.

Pajama Party … or Not
Is Senator wandering around office buildings clad only in his jammies?

4. Alas, I live in New Mexico
and I'm utterly flummoxed as to why they keep returning that old fossil. He should have retired 10 years ago; thank goodness he's said he's retiring after this term.

I think the only way he clings to that office is because he puts out a lot of PR about how he's single handedly kept redundant military bases in NM off the military chopping block. I can think of no other reason.

He's truly awful. Dementia might represent an improvement over his normal self.
