>>>>>Stunned by Sen. Paul Wellstone's death, shaken state Democrats tried to decide who might replace him in a race that could decide control of the U.S. Senate.>>>>>>>>>

"This turn of events is unfortunate. We must accelerate our plans.... Good. I have the Senate bogged down in procedures. By the time this incident comes up for a vote, they will have no choice but to accept your control of the system..... It is too late for them to stop us now. Everything is going as planned. The Senate will soon be in my control.....

The Democrats will have no choice but to accept Republican control of the Senate... Begin landing your troops.
