Ironic that Kay Brown chose to retire a few days after Clinton failed to get elected.  Where were the Democrats when Diane Benson almost beat Don Young - with little, or no, financial support from the party; the party hung Diane out to dry?  I quit the party when the "Fiscally Conservative" and "Socially Liberal" folks like Bill Clinton, Les Aspen (I knew Les - I'm from Wisconsin) and James Carville destroyed the local base of the party so they could run the show.  

So now we have payback. Kay - you'll get no thanks from me for a job well done.  Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
