The deaths they face are neither funny nor something fairly called an evil scheme. We try to be above these kind of attacks on Free Republic, especially in threads announcing the passing of an individual.
It's not we conservatives who "unexpectedly" and mysteriously wind up with these situations which pull the heartstrings of voters during critical elections. It's the Democrats, and if you haven't noticed that coincidence, then you haven't been watching all that long.
Speaking of that, I hardly ever recall seeing you around here before, though I note we have very close 'born on' dates. Please don't deign to tell me what "we" do, or do not do, on Free Republic.
A big loss for the immediate family but NOT news.
That it makes the news is a pathetic attempt to generate sympathy for a candidate in trouble. Nothing more.
No one finds it humorous that Claire McCaskill’s mother died. Thank heaven’s she wasn’t in one of Claire’s husband’s nursing homes.
We just believe the senate race is so important and that a McCaskill win would harm our children and grandchildren not only in MO but in this country. McCaskill’s voting record has caused considerable damage..her vote brought Obamacare over the top in the senate. Her mother favored Obamacare.
It is very sad to lose someone you love and especially a child or a parent but it is my hope the independents and undecideds do not swing over to Claire out of sympathy.
For example..I could not abide Sen Ted Kennedy when he was alive and my opinion of him never changed after his death.
