Flap remembers meeting “the Prince of Darkness” at Pat Buchanan’s Virginia home in 1990. He definitely lived up to his “Prince of Darkness” name but had the biggest cadre of conservatives wishing to engage him in conversation.

The biggest treat of this afternoon was listening to Novak and Judge Robert Bork discuss politics.

May he Rest in Peace.

His nickname inside the Beltway was the “Prince of Darkness” and after Flap met him at Pat Buchanan’s house in the 90’s I understood the moniker well.

Novak’s prognosis is “dire” and will treat his cancer with radiation and chemotherapy.

A sad day for American political journalism.
