Ted,

You can choose to argue this issue until hell freezes over but its chickensh*t.

To get the same intellectual quality of the conversation, I can just as well talk to a log.

Joe

Ted, Re: < Changing the rules to fit your argument halfway through the discussion is what you are accusing the Dems of doing in the NJ election.>

"Two days before Torricelli "decided" to pull out of the New Jersey race, Patsy Mink, a Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii, died of pneumonia. Unlike Torricelli, Mink is evidently irreplaceable. The Democrats have insisted that her name remain on the ballot.

When Democratic Senate candidate Mel Carnahan died in a plane crash just three weeks before the 2000 election, his wife, Jean, volunteered to be appointed to the seat if he won. Carnahan was behind in the polls before the plane went down, but in an outpouring of sympathy for the grieving widow, the dead man won an upset victory. "

Dead's not enough. Polling poorly is. Torricelli had to go.
