<<Kevin, too bad Ernest died. I would have voted for him.>>
I don't recall ever seeing a requirement that a candidate had to be living to be elected. If so, perhaps it should be repealed. Having a bunch of dead people in office would have a number of benefits. The effect is the same as Mark Twain's comment that the only time the government wasn't dangerous was when they were in recess. Support staffs would be small. Intern problems wouldn't develop. They also wouldn't keep voting raises for themselves since the cost of being dead index doesn't move up much. You wouldn't have to worry about people like Hillary running in states where they didn't maintain permanent residence. The skeletons wouldn't be in the closet. Best of all, it really doesn't matter which pompous party fool you vote for.
