Oddly, I just read that CNN is announcing that the DFL party has chosen Mondale. Ahem. One of Wellstone's sons worked for the Humphrey campaign in 2000, so I wouldn't think that is the case. Some local Big Buck party contributors and some in the DNC seem to be getting a bit ahead of themselves here, considering the DFL Party Chair said yesterday in a very public press conference that the party was going to honor the wishes of the family in the selection of a replacement, if there was going to be one.

Someone needs to take CNN off steroids, methinks.
