State GOP spokesman Brent Woodcox says the former Arkansas governor did the Heimlich maneuver on Robert Pittenger, the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, at a lunch before Huckabee gave his speech Saturday.[continued]

I read an article about a year ago that said Bill Frist and David Petraeus first met way back when Petraeus was still a Captain running training drills and Frist was an army surgeon. Petraeus was accidentally shot during a drill and it was Frist that operated on him and saved his life.

Thought that was pretty interesting.
