[edit] Was Patsy deliberately "pumped and ventilated" until after the election deadline?

Is there proof that Patsy Mink was maintained "alive" until after the deadline passed to have her name removed from the ballot? What do the medical records show? AllVowelTown 21:51, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

The medical records were never released. The time and date of death was never released. There are published reports that describe "misinformation" and "manipulation" in the month leading up to the announcement of her death.

Patsy's funeral was very large and very public, and occurred before the election. Around 5000 people were there. The vote for her in the election was considered to be a tribute by most people, who were aware of her death and did not want a Republican to be elected in this resoundingly Democratic district. AllVowelTown, maybe you should keep your pajamas on and got back to what I assume is your right-wing blog where you can spread more rumors. DuendeThumb (talk) 23:22, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
