[quote] If Ashcroft is a 'good guy', then how in the world did he lose to a posthumous Carnahan? [/quote]
I think we've been over this before, but as I saw it the election of Mrs. Carnahan [for better or worse] was a state-wide catharsis. Both Ashcroft and Carnahan were/are good men. By and large, people agreed or disagreed, but did not hate either of them. As with most all who pass on, Carnahan was remembered fondly. Aschcroft stopped campaigning. Then the 'the dream lives on' movement, that it felt good to be a part of regardless of ideology, came on and then it was time to vote.
