4. Spitzer did something like this to get 1 seat closer to controlling the NY State Senate

Edited on Fri Jan-30-09 11:06 AM by Renew Deal

He picked some LI repub State Senator to be "homeland security" chief. The district was favorable to Democrats and we won the seat in the special election.

I am comfortable with Lynch going either way. Picking a republican is "fair." Picking a Democrat helps the country the most. We should probably look at precedent, first in NH, and nationally. Have republicans replaced dems with dems? If that's the tradition, then we shouldn't break it.
