Spellings Loses To "Lenny" From Laverne & Shirley

What are we to make of Secretary Spellings' second-place finish on Celebrity Jeopardy last week to Michale McKeon (aka "Lenny" from the 1970s TV show Laverne & Shirley)? See: Education secretary places 2nd on 'Celebrity Jeopardy!'

To be sure, there are conflicting accounts. Some sources have Spellings saying she had buzzer problems and was shut out of several answers. Another has her saying that McKeon had an unfair advantage having been on the show before ("soft bigotry" if I ever heard it). Over at Wonkette, a writer points out that she under-bet on the Daily Double.
