Person(s) for the week: Julian Carroll

It was hard deciding who should be the person for the week. It became a toss-up between Senator Julian Carroll and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales' aide, Kyle Sampson, who was on the Congressional "hot seat" all day yesterday over "prosecurorgate". In the end, the man who got many Kentuckians shaking their collective heads in amazement over his "Steve Pence" remarks on the Senate floor, who got a fellow Democratic Senator to give him lessons about "throwing rocks at others", and who alienated many in his own party for his endorsement -- and the ensuing rationale for the endorsement -- of the Lunsford/Stumbo gubernatorial ticket (which prompted many Democrats to wish he was "retired at his farm" and a blogger to start a recruitment drive for his challenger) is this blog's person for the week. That man is Senator Julian carroll.
