I propose a crow banquet all the lines of (from wiki):
"....After incumbent Harry Truman defeated Thomas Dewey in the 1948 United
States presidential election despite many media predictions of a Dewey victory,
the Washington Post sent a telegram to the victor:
You Are Hereby Invited To A "Crow Banquet" To Which This Newspaper
Proposes To Invite Newspaper Editorial Writers, Political Reporters And Editors,
Including Our Own, Along With Pollsters, Radio Commentators And Columnists . . .
Main Course Will Consist Of Breast Of Tough Old Crow En Glace. (You Will Eat
Turkey.)[10]..."
I leave it to the readers to decide which 'columnists' to invite....
