Annular Flashback: November 1, 2002
Sorry to kick off the Halloween weekend on such a sad, sad note...but hey, it's history, I didn't write it.

A letter from MoveOn.org:
Dear MoveOn members,
After Paul Wellstone's tragic death in a plane crash, his remaining
family turned to Walter Mondale. Paul's sons asked Mondale to
continue Paul's tradition in the Senate by running in his place.
Wednesday night, Mondale was officially named the Democratic
candidate in the Minnesota race.
Yesterday, the GOP went into full attack mode. The White House
announced that Vice President Dick Cheney, First Lady Laura Bush and
President Bush would make successive appearances in Minnesota,
beginning today, for Wellstone's opponent Norm Coleman.
We've been talking with the Mondale campaign, and they're emotionally
exhausted and besieged. Mondale has no staff, no media dollars, and
no web site. GOP attacks keep coming, and the money keeps rolling in
for Coleman -- the Republicans now see this as a winnable race.
Mondale and his volunteer staff are good people running under the
most difficult of personal and political conditions. We've just got
to help.
