I seem to remember him and Shumer deciding that a worthwhile candidate for Senator should not be supported because another had higher "name recognition" and a family history in government plus fund raising capabilities?

obviously I'm not serious

Kind of makes you sound like a petty a-hole

nobody should wish/hope for another person to die or be dead.. imho... but..
should anyone on DU miss the guy ?
probably not :p

hes such a corporate whore its ridiculous...
everyone should go find any video of him talking about fracking and look for the strings from above and hand up his ass.. cause hes just a well paid puppet.

Always was.

It's where he worked before politics, and where he works now.

Another corporation owned "New" Democrat.

And his Eagles commentary is usually moronic too.

In your eyes it would be OK if he had died in the plane crash because he supported a candidate other than the one you liked?

Gee, please step away from the computer for a while and go out in the real world.

but i think they were not able to make it because of timing.

imagine if we had lost both of them at that time .............

n/t

that people arrange deaths over newspapers these days.

And as a Philadelphian, I am sad to see this happen for other than human compassion reasons. I was actually hoping that the buyout would be a good thing for the Inquirer. I keep hoping that something that happens will be a good thing for that disappearing paper!

But still it was the first thought that occurred to me. Those involved in the dispute/deal are regional power players and from reports on the radio over the last few weeks it sounded like things had gotten ugly. Still, it doesn't seem very likely that it was other than an accident.

I also agree about the Inquirer. But it looks like Katz's son will be taking over his role so the newspaper should not be too severely affected. Whether they can make it viable again is a bigger question but that question was there anyway.

Him and his family have to be feeling pretty lucky right now...

My condolences to the family of the deceased.

In the end we're all human. All the wealth in the world can't save us if we're going down in a plane or being shot at.

Poor people, may they rest in peace.
