That's because in a contest between John Ashcroft and a dead man, any 
sane person would vote for the dead man.  Ashcroft makes Fritz Hollings 
look good, and I didn't think that was possible.

Besides, the Democrats managed a great smear campaign against the one 
good candidate for gov. here in CA, and managed to shift enough so the 
one they *knew* they could beat would get the nomination.  The 
republicans played right into it, and now they will lose - CA will not 
elect a hard-line conservative governor.
