The Good Guys

Alec Baldwin took to the highbrow nursing home that is 60 Minutes last night to discuss, among other things, that notorious voice message in which he called his adolescent daughter a "rude little pig." With narrowed eyes, Baldwin told an old, old Morley Safer that though he is sorry he left the message, he is "pretty overwhelmed by the sanctimoniousness of people." It was a quiet exhibition of the unflinching honesty and unwillingness to bend to public outrage that will ensure this guy never, ever wins the public office he seeks.
