Subject:Burnt Ignition cable end stuck in dist. Cap

Van started running rough today, at idle mostly.  Got home and took a
look.  Obvious problem, the wire from the coil to distributor was
bent off at an angle with burn marks all over the place.  just
touched it and it came apart.  Now I've got the burnt up end stuck
down in the center pole of the distributor.  Nothing to grab onto and
everything is pretty brittle from the heat it has been exposed
to.  I'm thinking dremel is my next move, but anybody have any better ideas?
