Meeting the Running Mates’ Mates

Your story on Marilyn Quayle was so heartwarming! The picture of two young, well-bred, beautiful people, late at night, alone in an office in Indiana, brought together by the prospect of sending poor people to death in the electric chair or gas chamber, brought tears to my eyes. I can see them now, poring over the law books, working so hard to fry the disenfranchised, and suddenly so titillated that they fall into an embrace! Is this a movie?
