1. I hope she does.
Give her back the front row seat and make David Gregory stand in the parking lot.

3. I hope she is given the front and center seat, and called upon first
Even if it's just once, for "ceremonial" reasons.

I met her and got to speak with her alone for about five minutes. It was right after W was "elected," and she had come out of retirement. She had just given a presentation to a bunch of rich, elderly conservatives on why W was gonna suck. It was priceless!

She is a wonderful, gracious lady -- and oh so tiny. I'm 5'2", and I felt like a giant next to her.

5. I know that she was recently ill...
But I hear that she is recovering.
What I have been thinking for years is that I want to see her front and center in the first row of seats. I want to witness Obama and his press secretary to address her FIRST.
"Yes, Helen, may I take your question?"
Then I want the entire press pool to rise and applaud her.

8. Man I sure hope so.
And I hope she gets the very first question.

9. I don't think she'd miss it for the world.
At least, she'll do it for a while.
