Ted Stevens Convicted, Still Has Name on Alaskan Landmarks

Alaska Senator Ted Stevens was convicted today of seven counts of making false statements, a verdict that renders him a felon. Guess that means he won't be voting for himself on November 4!

The recent trouble notwithstanding, Stevens is larger than life in his home state of Alaska, where his name adorns everything from the Anchorage airport to a research center in Juneau.
