Well, THAT friggin' blows! IndyCar is on VS here, and the satellite co I have got into a pissing contest with Comcast over the station, so I missed the Long Beach Grand Prix for the first time in about 25 years or so. >:( They have since kissed and made up...

They did that in Mass...TWICE! It was originally set so the Governor coud appoint an empty Senate seat until a "Special Election" could be held. When we had a Republican gov, the State Senate changed it to "election only" when it looked like Kerry might become Pres. Then when Ted "the Liar of the Senate"* died, they changed it BACK, since we have a Democrat gov now. Whatever fits your agenda! *(In case you don't get the joke, Ted Kennedy was called the LION of the Senate. I changed it to fit better...)

And what about Arnie overthrowing the duly elected senator? That's a revoltion is the purest sense. Exactly like Castro did. but without having to have an army, just using the courts. > *(In case you don't get the joke, Ted Kennedy was called the LION of > the Senate.
