Thank you for that link, deks. Is Mark Obenshain any relation to Kate Obenshain?
Obenshain’s father was to be the Republican nominee for the Senate in 1976 but was killed in a small plane crash while campaigning. Nominee runner up and ex-Navy Sec. John Warner, stupid as he was, nonetheless was smart enough to always marry wealthy women; Liz Taylor was his second wife after Catherine Mellon. The attraction and money of Liz pushed dumb John over the top by 10,000 votes to win the Senate seat. I recall Richard Nixon’s taped words when Ehrlichman protested that some prospective Navy Secretary nominee was not smart enough - “Any ******* can do that job; hell, we had John Warner doing it”.
