That being the case, you are right; perhaps dead already would be more apt.

This is a day for the books - teacher union busted in Calif. Z Street gets the IRS, Cantor loses, Obambi polls # number drops to 38%, Hillary has series of bad interviews, VA bill moves to help vets get private care... it’s a good day.
