No! The Lib-Dems who orchestrated the Wellstone crash (urged on by their great success with the Torricelli situation)...

You are on to something here. More like the Carnahan/Mink situations. Leave the marter on the ballot and he will win by as much as he would have lost had he been alive. One or two closes races per cycle seem to be this way. NJ is even better. If the Torch is unworthy to run, he is obviously unworthy to serve right now.

I have made a few bad jokes today about FR flying about as well as a twin Beech in frozen drizzle over the Iron Range. I was actually trolling for an opportunity to praise Senator Wellstone for being Senator Wellstone. He left no doubt the he was a liberal. He made no aplogies. My favorite kind of liberal stands for what they believe in and believe what they stand for. It is the uninformed, kool-aid drinking posers that bother me.
