I told ya!

Jack Abramoff's hat IS a Bencraft Borsalino! The Hill: In a profile of ascendant Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) in the Jewish Forward newspaper last week, the paper reprised part of a story it broke three years ago on the saga of a sandwich named after Cantor at Stacks, the short-lived kosher deli owned by Jack Abramoff. At a January 2003 fundraiser for Cantor, who had just become chief deputy whip, Abramoff unveiled the Eric Cantor sandwich, “a tuna-based stacker,” which, lamentably, was “not quite [the] power lunch befitting” the only Jewish Republican in the House......So now we know what Larry David and Eric Cantor have in common. On a related note, the mystery of Abramoff’s gangster-like hat is now solved. The Forward reports that Abramoff purchased the hat from Bencraft Hatters, “a Brooklyn shop that caters largely to Orthodox Jews. The hat in question, a Como II fedora made by Borsalino, retails on the Bencraft Web site for $200.”
