Mass. state senator arrested after chase (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080604/ap_on_re_us/state_senator_arrested)

I suspect that had Marzilli been a Republican there would have been a big R after his name in the first paragraph.

Please note that it is only in the last paragraph that we are told of his political affiliation.

The fact that he is a democrat is not in the least bit important. I am surprised they mentioned it at all...
