The Man from Plains

A little strange, Jimmy Carter's looking more like Nixon as years go by, after campaigning and winning with his promise to be the Un-Nixon in 1976. He apparently had his own enemies list and George Will was at the top of it, because of Will's role in Ronald Reagan's debate prep in his campaign against Carter for the presidency.

Maybe Carter's little note to Will was meant to be a friendly josh like snapping towels in a locker room, but if so, he certainly doesn't understand the etiquette of that kind of male bonding.
