I am beginning to wonder if some of the “Tea Party” candidates are being planted. The people I know who support the Tea Party are down to earth, rational, and overall very nice folks. Yet time after time, I see these candidates in races all over the country do and say some incredibly stupid and race losing things. Maybe I an just seeing boogermen behind every bush, but it strikes me as odd that it happens again and again. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, please pass the “Duh.”
Libertarians.
Perhaps the type of people who run for office are not down to earth, rational, and overall very nice folks. Just politicians.
