Some tragic news: As reported by Marc Ambinder, Barack Obama’s Nevada state director, Terence Tolbert, died last night of a heart attack. This would be a tragedy under any circumstances, any week of the year.
But Tolbert died the weekend before an election in a state which matters to the outcome matters nationally and, worse, he was just 44 — younger than Obama himself. Our thoughts go out to him, his family, and what I’m sure is an extended political family in Nevada Democratic politics.
