Peter Rosenstein (self styled "QueenMaker")has become forever known as Washington's drag answer to Linda Blair, which is saying something given that Linda Blair's satanically possessed Regan character in "The Exoorcist" was originally set in Washington.

Rosenstein acheived this distinction after her performance at the Stein Club's '06 mayoral endorsement meeting. During her remarks in support of then candidate, Fenty, Rosenstein transformed into a violent volcano of viscious invective, her eyes rolled back in her head, she turned a kind of satanic red color and appeared to be emitting smoke, her head appeared to be turning on a 360 degree axis as her mouth exhaled this deafening, cacophanous screed of hate, anger and profanity. The only thing absent was the green vomit.

It was a sight to behold. The room, filled with veteran politicoes, was left in kind of a stunned, fearful silence. Poor Alex Evans (then knee deep in his 24/7 servitude to King Fenty for which he would be so loyally and richly rewarded)was bereft. Adrian himself, as I remember was kind of madly pacing the elevator lobby/adjacent hallway as if looking for an escape route.
I am sure he was grateful at least that his wife and children were safe at home.

Linda Cropp handily won the endorsement but I truly felt sorry for Adrian and Alex. No one could have predicted or supported such a complete meltdown. I have never seen either of them behave in such a manner, nor have I ever witnessed such a performance before or since in a political career spanning both coasts and many of the flyover states.

This is the same Peter Rosenstein who encourages voters to support Clark Ray! Go Phil!

I hope Phil WINS!
