Zell on Fox

The pugnacious blue-dog with red state credibility (who once famously challenged MSNBC’s Chris Matthews to a duel) has now inked a deal with FNC. The details aren't yet clear.

I'm hoping for an action-adventure show with a "revenge" theme, like The Punisher or Batman. Zell stars as a streetwise anti-hero who hunts down the old gangsters of the Democratic Party, and gives them a righteous verbal whup-ass before flaying them with his rusty Confederate sword.

Picture Tom Daschle leaving a posh K Street law firm late at night, his footsteps quickening when he sees a shadow behind him. And the season cliff-hanger: A brawl with Clinton, while they exchange tirades, in southern drawls, on political centrism and betrayal.
