What's up with turning a memorial service into a campaign pep rally?
I had never really had heard of Paul Wellstone, but I was impressed when a number of prominent conservatives said such nice things about the guy - We disagreed with him, but we respected and liked him. - was the chorus.
Then, last night, they turned his memorial service into a get-out-the-vote-for-Mondale campaign rally. They booed some of the Republican Senators who were in attendance to pay their respects. It got so bad, Independent Governor Jesse Ventura walked out in disgust.
I also heard a statement from a Minnesota state Democrat official who said they'd sue over not counting Wellstone absentee votes for Mondale. Come on! I wonder if they own the Minnesota Supreme Court as they do in New Jersey.
This takes winning at any expense to new levels. I'm ashamed of my fellow Americans.
