Dead Man Ruling

More stupidity for a Friday afternoon - this time from the town that has elected a dead man mayor. In an article ripe with stupidity this comment stands out as perhaps the most idiotic:

"I know he died, but I don't want change," one villager told Romanian TV.

Don't want to see negative, but the guy is dead. Change is now going to happen whether the villager likes it or not.

Still, I do have a bit of sympathy for the guy who lost the election - it really says something if people would rather have their village run by the dead rather than by you.
