In case any of you haven't heard, Paul Wellstone's plane just went down about 45 minutes northwest of where I live in Eveleth, Minnesota. It is drizzly and foggy here. His plane went down with eight people aboard, including his wife and daughter. Very, very sad news. He was supposed to debate Norm Coleman in Duluth tonight.
He is the only Democrat I have voted for since I graduated from High School. I disagreed with virtually everything he stood for, (except education) but had a ton of respect for the way he stuck to his beliefs. He didn't follow anyone's lead but his own. He was 58 years old.
