1. Pilot error compounded by a failed attitude indicator.
It was an accident.

2. Not enough partial panel practice.
Unfortunately, not only did this kill Carnahan and his son, the pilot, but the ultimate result was that the infinitely evil John Ashcroft is now the attorney general of the U.S. But I don't think even the BFEE could have anticipated Ashcroft would lose the election to a dead guy -- so I don't think they sabotaged the vacuum pump or the gyro.

4. It was an accident
Ashcroft was slightly leading in the polls when Carnahan died. He probably would have won, at least most pollsters thought so at the time. Small planes do crash. This is weird tin foil stuff.

5. Where are all the no voters?
I want to hear the other side. I suppose you all don't believe the Wellstone crash was an accident either.

I hate flying, even large jets. Small planes are accident prone. Just a fact of life. Was John Heinz or John Towers's plane crashes an accident? Of course.

6. That seat was what kept the Republicans from taking the Senate in 2001
