MINNESOTA BITCHY

Ames?  I just don't like your presidential chances next year.  Not sure why.

Senator Amy Klobuchar was hungry, forkless and losing patience.
 
An aide, joining her on a trip to South Carolina in 2008, had procured a salad for his boss while hauling their bags through an airport terminal. But once onboard, he delivered the grim news: He had fumbled the plastic eating utensils before reaching the gate, and the crew did not have any forks on such a short flight.
 
What happened next was typical: Ms. Klobuchar berated her aide instantly for the slip-up. What happened after that was not: She pulled a comb from her bag and began eating the salad with it, according to four people familiar with the episode.
 
Then she handed the comb to her staff member with a directive: Clean it.

Clearly, she's the next Hillary Clinton.

Nah, TLM, so far as I know she doesn't have a creepy husband to run interference for.

Already an old joke. Stick a comb in her, she's done.

She should travel with a spork. What is really creepy is that she didn't ask her aide to clean the comb before use, or better yet, get up and do it herself.
