Democratic Hit Man

It reminded me of what happened in Tennessee (bloggers sure called it, huh?):

"Democratic chairman slain in Arkansas; Suspect killed; had lost his job" by Andrew DeMillo, Associated Press | August 14, 2008

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - A man barged into the Arkansas Democratic headquarters and opened fire yesterday, fatally shooting the state party chairman before speeding off in his pickup. Police later shot and killed the suspect after a 30-mile chase.

Police said they don't know a motive. However, they said that moments after the shooting he pointed a handgun at the building manager at the nearby Arkansas Baptist headquarters. He told the manager, "I lost my job," said Dan Jordan, a Baptist convention official."

Maybe the CIA could use him, no?

I'd expect to see a lot more of this around the country, as well as things like this, as the economy gets worse and worse.
