I've almost come to the conclusion that Michelle Bachmann is a good thing. She shows the true face of the wing-nut core of the GOP, in a live, breathing Congressman. Were she replaced by someone sane, it would far easier for people to think that the wing-nuts were just a marginal part of the modern conservative modern, much as liberals have to put up with pacifists and PETA and other small, fringe groups as somehow affiliated. But when a fire-breathing wing-nut is repeatedly elected and stays influential in the GOP, well... that means something.

On the other hand, Russell, with Bachmann around, it's easy to point to the lady with the crazy eyes and miss just how many other wing-nuts there are in Congress. They just do a little better at keeping their mouths shut. And next to Bachmann, they look much more sane than they are.

Oh, I'm absolutely of that opinion. However, it's not really fair that any one State be stuck with her as a "representative" for any length of time. There should be a way to pass her around -- draw straws or something.

It seems appropriate somehow. After all, she is a sort of white elephant <rimshot>
