Mrs. Congeniality
Nearly deleted among the thousand-or-so e-mails awaiting after a two-week trip to the political conventions was this nugget: Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., is the nicest senator.
The Washingtonian magazine polled 1,700 Capitol Hill aides for its feature on the Best and Worst of Congress.
Lincoln was selected “nicest” by both Democratic and Republican staffers, the magazine said. She finished ahead of Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., and Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich.
Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., was named the meanest.
The rest of the Arkansas congressional delegation is generally nice, too. We’ll leave it to others to decide where their pleasantness ranks compared to Lincoln, avoiding any mean-spirited competition.
