Secret Santa

Dec 13 2011

We don’t see enough bipartisan cooperation on Capitol Hill, but 58 members of the 100-member Senate teamed-up this week for one thing that didn’t involve a knock-down, drag-out fight: a Christmas gift exchange.

The price limit was $10, and senators gathered to meet their “Secret Santa” last night.

Senator Warner, who drew the name of Wyoming Sen. Mike Enzi, provided fly fishing lures to the avid angler.

Warner’s name was drawn by Nebraska Republican Mike Johanns, who presented the Virginia Democrat with a super-sized Energizer Bunny -- the kind that keeps going and going and going.

"Mark never stops," Johanns said. "He's got endless energy, so I thought that would be entirely appropriate."
