Comfortable Disappearance

California State Assembly candidate Bill Conrad recently sent the below mailer targeting his opponenet Tom Berryhill:

Berryhill had a heart transplant 6 years ago, and Conrad thinks he’s unfit to be State Assemblyman, because of it. His reasoning is that typical heart transplant patients live only 7 years and that a special election to replace him would be expenive. While those might be good reasons, Berryhill is in good health, and there’s no indication that he’s going to drop dead in the next year, just because that’s when statistics say he might. What a shady move for Bill Conrad.
