Ventura: I won't appoint Democrat

ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 1 (UPI) -- Gov. Jesse Ventura, miffed at the political tone of the memorial for Sen. Paul Wellstone, Friday considered appointing "John Q. Citizen" to replace the late senator for the lame-duck session of the 107th Congress. A spokeswoman for the governor's office said hundreds of non-politicians have called, dropped off resumes or sent letters, saying they're interested in the job.
