The DC Madam, Deborah Palfrey, went into the shed next to her Mom’s trailer home and gorged herself on Ketch’s knotted rope.
From CNN here:
Deborah Jeane Palfrey, known as the “D.C. Madam,” was found dead in Florida Thursday. Palfrey, 52, hanged herself. The body was found by her mother, at whose home Palfrey had been staying.
Suicide notes were found near the body in a small storage shed next to a mobile home.
Palfrey was convicted last month in connection with a high-end prostitution ring catering to Washington’s elite. She was found guilty April 15 of money laundering, racketeering and mail fraud and faced a maximum 55-year prison term at her sentencing, which was scheduled for July 24.
Born as trailer trash, she died as trailer trash, in a shed, by a trailer, amongst the trash.
Joe Andrews, former Democrat Committee chairman and a superdelegate, switched his promised vote from Hillary to Obama. He buried his dagger to the hilt. As a geek who used to play Dungeons and Dragons, I’d say that Joe Andrew just rolled 8 d6 for this backstab. He also has the little-known ability to pick locks, detect traps and blend into the shadows.
From the AP here:
A leader of the Democratic Party under Bill Clinton switched his allegiance to Barack Obama on Thursday and urged fellow Democrats to end the bruising nomination fight.
“This has got to come to an end,” former Democratic National Committee Chairman Joe Andrew told reporters in his hometown of Indianapolis just days before Tuesday’s crucial state primary. He said he planned to call all the other superdelegates he knows and encourage them to back Obama.
Bill Clinton appointed Andrew chairman of the DNC in 1999, and he led the party through the disputed 2000 presidential race before stepping down in 2001. Andrew endorsed Hillary Rodham Clinton last year on the day she declared her candidacy for the White House.
In a lengthy letter explaining his decision, Andrew said he is switching his support because “a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote to continue this process, and a vote to continue this process is a vote that assists (Republican) John McCain.”
Now Hillary is going to counterattack Joe Andrew by casting a level 35 “Wail of the Banshee.” I predict Joe will fail his saving throw.
