[edit] Matthew_Lawton

This person doesn't actually exist as a notable political author. It was just started as a joke about a politically minded college student by his friends. Seriously, do a google search. This is just a big joke on Wikipedia to leave this article here. There is no political columnist named Matt Lawton, at least not the one mentioned here. Find sources if you doubt it.

• Delete per nom. Wow, this has been here since 2005. It's been blanked by IPs several times. --Dhartung | Talk 08:59, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nominator. For all we know, this is a hoax. A hoax which has existed on Wikipedia since June 28, 2005 for crying out loud. Burntsauce 23:30, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
