My son and I had a political coversation today
We talked about Wellstone's death, and other things. The conversation meandered to how John Ashcroft lost the election to a dead Mel Carnahan. My son thought that was hilarious.

1. As a Missourian, it was one of my proudest moments.
The Carnahan family's been to hell and back. Mel and Jean's daughter Robin (the MO SoS) was recently dignosed with breast cancer.

But wow, that got big laughs at family gatherings for a LONG time. :D

2. If I'm not mistaken, John Ashcroft was never ELECTED to anything.
So, of course Bush hired him.
