Dow doesn't actually have an opponent in the primary... so why are we endorsing him now? Well, we've seen a lot of appalling yearbook photos as we put together this high-school-themed endorsement issue, but none can really touch Constantine's John Travolta shot. Look at that hair! It's hilarious--and so is the high-school shot of Sharon Tomiko Santos (Disco class of '79!) that we'll be running with our endorsements for the general election. Look for it on October 31.
