On second though, let's do forget. One man has three kids, the other has
none (for now). We're truly into the silly season if second cars are a
credible issue.

Both men are environmentalists; neither is Satan wielding a catalytic
converter.

As for the Wellstone debate, it's icky, too. I know Wellstone partisans on
both sides (John Blackshaw is a former Wellstone campaign manager for Pete's
sake, and Jeff Blodgett, also a Wellstone campaign manager and Paul's chief
of staff, has helped RT this year. I'm sure there are many other lower-level
former Wellstone workers involved.) Both candidates uphold parts of Paul's
legacy in different ways - and Paul would probably say take the fight to the
real source of the problem, which is neither of these guys.
