Perspective

There are rumors that Gabrielle Giffords's husband, Mark Kelly, may run for U.S. Senate from Arizona. Or anyway, here is a rumor to that effect.

Wow. Trying to place myself in Mark Kelly's shoes: My wife has been a target of threats, harassment, and finally a near-successful assassination attempt, due to her work in politics. Now she is disabled and needs daily rehab for a brain injury, from the assassination attempt previously mentioned. Now I am going to leave her side AND enter the business that messed up her life?
