PA's own Arlen Specter made it in the top ten BEST!
it's also interesting that Ted Kennedy is listed as one of the top senators.
Which list is Rick Santorum on?

There is a certain amount of humor in the fact that the Mayo Clinic itself earns 35% of what the entire state of SD does.

And that's just one facility down there in Rochester. I'd imagine if you combined all the other operations, foundations and golf courses, you just might get more economic acitivity there than all of SD.

The fact that Dick Durbin and Ted Kennedy made the best list make me glad I don't subscribe to Time.
