Oh Mel!…Sure, you were a mediocre governer at best, but if you wouldn’t have died so tragically days before your election in 2000, we either wouldn’t have had Attorney General Ashcroft becuase you would have lost, or maybe you would have won, but either way we would not been forced to live through One MO Senate Debate.
