The desiccated corpse of the Late H. Lee Atwater will now retire back to his grave in South Carolina. Thanks to everyone for participating. See you all next Devil's Night.

The Winner of 7th Annual Late H. Lee Atwater Award for Right Wing Evil is...
For the SECOND year in a row, the terrifying Two-Headed monster known as Charles and David Koch with a grand total of 20 votes.
Exclusive Audio: Inside the Koch Brothers' Secret Seminar
Don't miss Gavin Aronsen's breakdown of the Kochs' million-dollar donor club.
Don't forget to check out Part 2 of this report, on the GOP superstar who rocked the Koch seminar crowd.
"We have Saddam Hussein," declared billionaire industrialist Charles Koch, apparently referring to President Barack Obama as he welcomed hundreds of wealthy guests to the latest of the secret fundraising and strategy seminars he and his brother host twice a year. The 2012 elections, he warned, will be "the mother of all wars."
Charles Koch would probably not publicly compare the president of the United States to a murderous dictator. (As a general rule, he and his brother don't do much politicking or speechifying in public at all.) But Mother Jones has obtained exclusive audio recordings from the Koch seminar, a private event that took place in June at a resort near Vail, Colorado.
These unprecedented recordings provide a behind-the-scenes look at how the Koch brothers and their comrades talk when they gather. They include a pair of keynote speeches and remarks by brothers Charles and David Koch, who spell out their political aims and name some of the "great partners" who have contributed millions of dollars to their causes. (The audio was provided by a source who approached the author after the event was over and was not seeking compensation.)
