I think Walter Lippmann presaged our legislature (likely the US Congress, as well) when he said, "Where all think alike, no one thinks much."

Well, that’s what you get when you install a bunch of idiots in the legislature who are only there to occupy seats for the IFF. In my district, we ran a stellar candidate with years of experience in the medical field. She wanted the job and campaigned tirelessly to prove it. She ran rings around her opponent in candidates forums. But being Idaho, guess who won?

Until we bring in serious minded, intelligent, independent candidates, we’ll be doomed to more of these time-wasting antics from petty, petulant toddlers.

And yet the "petty, petulant toddlers" keep getting elected. And by a small percentage of eligible voters. When the democrats get as organized and focused about supporting their candidates as the opposition is, we might stand a chance. "Get out the vote" isn't just a slogan. It's a winning strategy.
