Massachusetts has a law that covers the death of Sen Kennedy. They must hold a special election. I don't consider it a "problem" in any case, since I live in PA.
Yea, we have laws here about replacing OBs Senate seat, look at the games the Poli's went through to PREVENT a special election.
This one I do have to blame the Dems, they dragged their feet, came up with stories etc to prevent a vote, they didn't want any chance it going to the Repubs. But the Repubs didn't help any either.
Then we got the Blago / Burris adventure, that was funny, even I have to admit it.

Remember too where OB learned the trade.
