This is nutty. If you KNOW you are going to lose an election, it behooves your party to have you resign, have the party Governor appoint someone for one year. What total crap. That's not a democracy.

You think that's nutty? Here's another instance of nuttiness that I posted on another thread a little while ago:

Not to mention the fiasco in Hawaii, where some are saying that Rep. Mink (D of course) was kept on life support long enough so that her name couldn't be removed from the ballot. She was pronounced dead just 2 days after the deadline had passed.

She was pronounced dead this past Saturday, and the Thursday before that was the deadline for ballot changes. So I believe now there will be another election in Hawaii just as there was in Missouri in 2000 when Carnahan, though dead, was elected to the Senate, and his widow was then given the Senate seat.

I'm started to see a trend here.

Re Mink being on life support - you are right - there is a trend - the Dems have proven they will do ANYTHING to stay in power. Rush always said they were funny to watch. I think they're frightening.

Wow. I hadn't heard that about Mink. These dems are really ghoulish aren't they? They're really into 'dead' politics.

Just last night, a lib friend of mine (yes it's possible) scoffed that we couldn't even beat a dead person (Carnahan).My other three friends and I immediately retorted:

"It's easy to to lose to the dead when they are elected by dead voters!"
