Prayers for her family. I really hated the way she took advantage of her stint as a Congresscritter, but I would not have wished this fate on her.

Sorry to hear the news. There have been several House members dying since this current Congress took over.
I of course would rather have seen Carson defeated at the ballot box. I wonder now in a special election if the Republican who ran a strong race against her in ‘06 would have a shot.

We have an outside chance of winning the seat, although it is drawn for the Democrats. Carson tended to underperform in it, though. Eric Dickerson, however, may not be our nominee this time.

“I wonder now in a special election if the Republican who ran a strong race against her in ‘06 would have a shot.”
this district is probably just out of reach except for extraordinary circumstances. The only reason the Republican ran close last time was because of the incumbents poor health.

Where is your Indiana flag? I don’t see one. Until I see an Indiana flag on your about page I will assume you are just a trouble maker on this thread and refrain from telling you what I really think.

RIP, congresswoman.

It shouldn’t be an honor. That is not us. Let the other side do that.

There seem to have been a lot of deaths this session of Congress, although I suppose that's just because it's such a small group.
Nonetheless, R.I.P.
I listened to a brief story about her career on WNYC earlier, which was the first time I heard the news.

Fare thee well Mrs. Carlson.
