Tucker Carlson is one conservative I really like. He doesnt come across as being the mean, obnoxious, angry, white male that most other conservative commentators on TV (exhibit A: Michael Savage) seem like. In fact, his show with Bill Press on CNN is one that I miss and one whose cancellation by the channel still boggles my mind. Nevertheless Tucker cannot keep his tongue down when the "Clinton" word comes up. In April, he confidently asserted that he would eat his shoe and tie if Hillary's memoirs sold a million copies. Yesterday the publishers announced the sale of a million copies and it was time for Tucker to eat his words, his shoe and his tie, in no particular order.

CNN reports that Hillary Clinton personally showed up on the "Crossfire" set to help Tucker keep his word, even if there was some legerdemain involved. Tucker even admitted he was impressed by the lady. About time, Tucker.
