Yes, but it's a good thing to discover that politically unknown people like Jacobs of Utah and Gilchrist of California can gather such strong support simply because they want to control illegal immigration.
What a shame that so many Americans vote for name recognition only. It only serves to save the butts of the incumbents, keeping the creeps in office.
There are indeed a lot of idiots voting. And keep in mind that the sainted "American people" came very close to electing John Kerry. One of these days, someone like him will be elected. I do not trust the American people with my future. Not that I trust anyone else, either, but it would be nice to trust them. And I can't. I don't see how any rational person can.
