While seething after the 1988 election, I said that I hope Lee Atwater dies a slow, painful, agonizing death. Barely two years later, I got exactly what I wished for.

When I think of how Atwater's life was abruptly cut short, I'm reminded of the scene in "Ghost", when the spirits of death rose up out of the shadows and swept Willie Lopez's evil soul away forever.
