"Jeez, Craig, why'd you die? Your job couldn't have been that taxing. It's basically reality TV show fodder."

I don't find it funny - in fact I find it tasteless - to makes jokes of a dead person, especially while the family is grieving... bad form.

Hakim -- you do understand that that's my point, right? That the Wyoming GOP would turn this situation into a circus (i.e. reality TV fodder) right after the senator's death is tasteless.

The Mojo blog should rename itself "The Spin Zone." Mr. Stein has a tin ear when it comes to humor. I would have to disagree about Mojo readers doing a better job at running the state of Wyoming. The job requires more than playing armchair politics and bitching about conservatives so it might be a bit much for a Mojo reader to handle. Also, since Mojo Blog has a readership of about 10 people (me when I'm really, really, bored) I think it would be prudent for MoJo to focus on it's print magazine. At least a "blog" like Drudge Report tends to run articles about both the left and right and is not desparately trying to appeal to a target audience. You can call it conservative but look at the stories for yourself. Surely a better source than this crappy blog.
