Rep. Paul Gillmor, 68
Holy cow! This has been a tough couple of weeks for the right-wing. This morning 10-term Ohio Congressman Paul Gillmor (R-OH) was found dead in his Washington, DC apartment. Gillmor had a zero rating from most progressive watchdog groups as he supported a ban on gay adoptions, supported a constitutional amendment against gay marriage, supported school prayer and supported the Patriot Act. Gillmor opposed stem-cell research, opposed abortion rights and fought key environmental legislation. Gillmor was the senior Republican on several key House committees.
