CHECKING OUT the Blogdex site Mark referred to, I came across this article that ponders "Was Paul Wellstone Murdered?" A question that has probably occurred to every cynical liberal in the country at this point. The article then remembers another recent liberal politician who died in a small plane crash "Mel Carnahan, who lost his life in 2000, three weeks before Election Day, during his Senatorial race against John Ashcroft. Carnahan went on to become the first dead man to win a Senatorial race, humiliating and defeating the unpopular Ashcroft posthumously. Ashcroft, despite his unpopularity, went on to be appointed Attorney General by George W. Bush." Kinda scary to think about kids, isn't it?
