I notice that authors are no longer superstars and politicians are only for spewimg venom on. You can criticize Mailer or praise him, but you can never say he was boring. The Kennedy phenomenon was a strange thing to witness. I never fell in love with him, like most of America did, and in some kennedy fan circles, my sanity was questioned because of this failure in hero worship. Blase as I was about Kennedy, I admit to finding great pleasure in listening to him and watching him. His charm just oozed out of the TV screen. Small wonder he was marketable.
