Hell hath no fury like that of a liberal Democrat living in the same small town as Republican congressional candidate Sean Duffy. If a stint on a TV show like The Real World qualifies one for Congress, I think I'd prefer the gang from Jersey Shore. Please tell me that the people of northwestern Wisconsin have not pinned their hopes on Duffy, a macho district attorney--even if he did keep law and order in Ashland County, a massive metropolis of 16,295 people.

The most impressive (and pleasing) quality about some of the civic leaders mentioned in your article is that they are not lawyers.

Joy for the World

The Moment item on the rescue of the Chilean miners is a riveting account of the triumph of the human spirit [Oct. 25]. It's a telling testament to the time-tested truism: man doesn't let his own kind down in his darkest dilemma. This mining-disaster saga is not only a toast to the Chileans; it's a victory for the whole human race.
