btw, is this quote verbatim or did you at least write it down very  
soon after the call?  Or, was this a recollection or reconstruction  
later?

Am putting together a 1,200 word nuclear missile for Mr. Duff ... if  
he screws up my nomination, I want to make sure we're both out of a  
job.  I'm going to sit out the week either way ... there is some white  
house action happening and I want to see where they are going this  
week.  But, getting the letter ready just in case gives me something  
to do.  :)
