More Bias from KranzDave Kranz, Tom Daschle's long-time college buddy, has an article in today's Argus in which he's whining about the Republican Senate Committee's press release about Thune's victory.

The case being made is familiar. On the commission's own standards Ellsworth scored well and just as high or higher than Dyess on various criteria. Consolidating the B-1 to one base is a bad idea. Pending lawsuits at Dyess make...$3,800 A Week For A "Spa" and He Doesn't Even Own A Decent Pair of Pants
