Talk:Gore Vidal
From RationalWiki
Poor old Gore. "The Bridesmaid" I call him because he was quite good at everything but not very good at anything and spent his career passionately attacking those whom he envied. Christopher Hitchens was a better polemicist than him, Truman Capote was a better novelist than him, Noam Chomsky was a better leftist intellectual than him and Ayn Rand was ... well, just better than him. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride. --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 13:33, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
