Stephanie Tubbs Jones' memorial service: Wellstone Funeral II?
Advertisements [?]
Carolyn Kilpatrick just delivered a speech at Stephanie's memorial service urging people to vote for Obama. She kept it inspirational and respectful, but I'm just waiting for the Repugs' heads explode again just like they did about Wellstone's funeral. "How dare they use a service for someone dead as an excuse to do that...blah blah blah."
They're so predictable.

1. That cost Mondale the election.
I think Mondale would have won, namely on positive buzz from that funeral, but the positive buzz was undercut by the attacks.
Pretty bland but then the most intelligent people on the planet chime in.

8. Mondale won that election.
Not to get into that crap, but that election really was stolen ten different ways.

Please do tell us all how.
