HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - The wife of the late congressman John Murtha is being urged to run for the House seat that he held for nearly four decades, a newspaper reported Friday.
"While people have been mindful that this is a difficult time for the family, many have called to suggest Joyce as the perfect person to hold her husband's seat," Murtha spokesman Matthew Mazonkey told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

And now the wife? Amazing; and desperately so.
It’s the people’s seat! Widows of dead corruptocrats need not apply
You're talking about a part of the country which continually re-elected the same crook to Congress since 1974.
...because the Democrats know that the ‘sympathy factor’ will enable them to hang on to the seat...
Is he even buried yet?
Entitlement mentality.
and they re-elected him even after he called them dumb racist rednecks ....
Shows you how little some people think of “the job”.
I believe in being respectful of the family of the deceased, but...if she is going to jump into the ring (why she would be qualified is anyone’s guess) then she better be prepared to answer.
You don’t know why his wife is qualified? Well, it is HIS seat, silly. It is Murtha’s seat, just like it was Kennedy’s seat. Liberals elect their royalty to life terms. Makes for great Tyrants.
So who better to put in MURTHA’s seat than Murtha’s wife?

She’s more qualified than anyone to hold his seat. She knows where the cash is stashed.

Filthy Rats... let the poor woman have some grief time rather than using her for their power grab schemes. Utter gutter SCUMs...
It’s about emotion. Works good on the left.
Missouri elected a dead Carnahan. The powers that be installed his wife in that senate seat.
“You don’t know why his wife is qualified? Well, it is HIS seat, silly. It is Murtha’s seat, just like it was Kennedy’s seat. Liberals elect their royalty to life terms. Makes for great Tyrants.”
I’m having nightmares about someone’s wife running for POTUS once he’s finished with the job.
“It’s not the Murtha seat. It’s not the Democrat seat. It’s the people’s seat.”
Well, Murtha wasn't qualified when HE ran so why not his wife to replace him, eh?
After all, who cares about country issues when one is a democrat or a RINO.
Have to ask the Carnahans I guess. Makes no sense to me either.
