WY-AL: Libertarian urges Cubin to resign

Tue Oct 24, 2006 at 10:30:48 AM PDT

Man, Libertarian candidate Thomas Rankin is thanking his lucky stars he was afflicted by MS and is wheelchair-bound, otherwise, Rep. Barbara Cubin (R) would've kicked his ass. Or, that's essentially what Cubin told Rankin after yesterday's debate.

I don't know if threatening disabled candidates for Congress with physical harm is "Wyoming values". Such boorish cowardice isn't really acceptable behavior anywhere in this world, as Rankin notes:

"The best response Barbara Cubin could give would be a resignation," he said. "Nothing less than that would satisfy me.

"She is not the type of person Wyoming residents want representing them," he said.
