Another Doug making the rest of us look bad:

"Republican Senate candidate Doug Forrester of New Jersey, fearful of almost certain defeat, is attacking his opponent, Frank Lautenberg, on the grounds that no gun safety law could have prevented the current killing spree that had traumatized the nation's capital. In fact, of course, Forrester knows absolutely nothing about the circumstances of the horror that has gripped the Washington area. Nobody does. except for forensic experts who are on the case -- and they're not talking, least of all to Doug Forrester. But that doesn't stop the desperate GOP candidate from exploiting the horror, and using it as a pretext to spout the National Rifle Association's gun-nut line. Doug Forrester has now established himself as the most despicable, indecent Republican candidate running for office this year -- and that's saying something! How dare he exploit the pain and anxiety of Americans in order to improve his poll ratings?"
