deja vu

A Democratic senator dies in a plane crash? Just before an election?

Again.

But this time his wife was with him.

And his surviving sons are too young to run.

I'm still very much in shock.

i hate to admit i was thinking the same thing...
isn't the senate ratio race by one?

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

It was, but there is an election coming up so who knows what would have happened.

The whole state's mourning...You should hear the honking and bells I hear out my window.

We've lost a truly great man,and it's just killing me.

does this mean the republican is running unopposed?

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

The Democrats have until the 3rd to come up with someone to run in his place.

i just read they are trying to get mondale.

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

Just like they got Wellstone? Oh, you mean the democratic party.

Re:

Re:

[i.livejournal.com]

I don't think so; I think they're going to find someone to put on the ballot. We have until 4 days before the election. meanwhile Wellstone's name stays on for now last time I heard.

If coleman ran unopposed there would be riots here; it's really that emotional right now.

conspiricy theories aside, when the news says, "The twin-engine private plane went down about 10 a.m. in freezing rain and light snow".....i tend to believe that the NTSB will find icing to be the cause.....

i travel in small planes a lot, and most are smaller than a king-air....i do not fly when conditions are poor....it's better to sit, drink coffee and eat cookies than to fly when conditions are marginal.......marginal, means just that.......that there is more than a normal risk involved......

i agree, it's a sad day for MN and moreso for the families of everyone in that aircraft.......

I hope they draft Mike Hatch, if Mondale won't do it. Mondale is a sure win vs. Coleman...
