Questions That Need to be Asked

The City Edition speculates that Arkansas Democratic Party chairman Bill Gwatney may have been the victim of a Manchurian Candidate-style assassination.

The post makes for interesting reading. And it raises some points that observers who are closer to the scene in Arkansas than I am might be better equipped to handle.

But the people I know in Arkansas who have e-mailed me about this matter have used words like "weird" to describe it.

They seem to be as baffled by this as I am.

Clearly there are questions that need to be asked. The City Edition is to be commended for talking about something that hasn't been getting the attention it deserves.
