This is news? Linda Chavez, a FOX commentator, has served in Reagan's WH, GHW Bush's WH, and GWB's WH...In 1986 Chavez ran for the senate in the state of Maryland against Barbara Mikulski, a life-time resident of Baltimore, and called Mikulski a "San Francisco-style George McGovern liberal" - all favorite Repub buzz words.
Mikulski defeated Chavez with 61% of the vote.
