The Republican candidate running for U.S. Senate in Illinois is in some trouble. He was married to an actress that people who watch TV might recognize (we’d never heard of her), but was divorced in 1995. The divorce records are sealed, and some people are hinting that there is something embarrassing to the candidate in the records. None of that is really any interest to us here at mj.

What we found to be interesting is the candidate’s name. Jack Ryan. Didn’t Tom Clancy end up making him President at the end of Debt of Honor, not Senator?
