The Wellstone `memorial’ was an unscripted jamboree of partisan speeches with a giant beach ball bouncing over the crowd and invitations to Republicans present to become Democrats for Wellstone’s memory’s sake, but what it was not was a nonstop denunciation of the Republican incumbent, which the McCain event clearly was.
The WH offered to send Dick Cheney to the Wellstone memorial but the family refused.
Thanks for the info.
