"I have discussed that scenario with the governor and with people who are very close to Jean Carnahan, and everyone is waiting for Mrs. Carnahan to say yes or no. It's her call," state Sen. James Mathewson, a close ally of Wilson, said Monday. "She is absolutely the first choice."

Wilson said Monday he "can't wait very long" to announce whom he would appoint, "but it can wait a little while, more out of respect."

Mrs. Carnahan has never run for office. She made no public comment about whether she would accept an appointment, and Carnahan campaign spokesman Tony Wyche said: "Nothing has been discussed at that level yet, and definitely there has been no decision."

Portrait of America Poll yesterday says that dead people run better than live ones in MO:

The race for the United States Senate between incumbent Republican John Ashcroft and the late Governor Mel Carnahan is now a toss-up, 49% to 46%. This is within the margin of sampling error. According to Missouri law, it is now too late to remove Carnahan’s name from the ballot. If Carnahan wins, Democratic Governor Roger Wilson will appoint the next senator. Ashcroft held a 10-point advantage, 50% to 40% in the POA survey prior to Carnahan’s passing.
