"E's not dead!"
I wish Senator Johnson a speedy and complete recovery. I wish him defeated in 2008 in an anti-Hillary landslide.
That having been said: Nonetheless, there will be a new acid test applied by liberals in the event of the senator's death or total permanent disability : No hangups on mere death or total disability as disqualifying Johnson from continuing (or SCOTUS's John Paul Stevens, Swish Souter or Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg in similar circumstances). Does a person take a narrow-minded technical and therefore reactionary view of death or disability or a progressive, reasonable, broad-minded, expansive view?
Oh death, where is thy sting?????
yes he is
