In what must be a first for a Chicago Democrat, at least one dead constituent is working against President Obama's reelection prospects. Consider Mr. Donald Charles Unsworth, who passed away aged 78 on September 6, 2010 surrounded by his large and loving family. The obituary describes a remarkable man--Air Force veteran, police officer, and successful small businessman. But the close of the piece reveals a steely family resolve to advance the cause of liberty:

The family respectfully asked in lieu of flowers that memorial contributions be made to the American Cancer Society or to the campaign of whoever is running against President Barack Obama in 2012.

This is not just another mid-term election. Donald Unsworth, RIP.

I hope Mr. Unsworth derived some satisfaction knowing that he was going to deprive the Leviathan of 2011's estate tax of 55%.

It makes me think of all the grandparents and great grandparents who feel life slipping away and are fearful of what sort of world they're leaving family to face.

Good on Mr Unsworth, though the Democrats will match his one body for thousands of dead voting the other way. Still, it is a nice start.

In the zombie press, the definition of corruption is the Democrats losing the deceased vote.
