Hope ... by gimleteye

Is it too much to hope that the looniness spilling out of Delaware politics and the sheer nonsense of Tea Party candidate Christine O'Donnell could change the minds of Tea Party supporters in Florida? Perhaps. Fred Grimm reports today that Congressional candidate David Rivera has holes in his resume so deep that no one can possibly know who he is. "His campaign explained it has redacted names of associates who might vouch for the mystery man "as well as information that may be considered classified or sensitive by the U.S. government.'' How can this kind of nonsense qualify a candidate for Congress?

It turns out Scott won't meet with newspaper editorial boards. What is Scott hiding: a history that he was working with David Rivera in black ops as part of a government operation to bankrupt the middle class? Then there is Tea Party candidate for US Senate Marco Rubio, relying on Karl Rove and Jeb Bush's ceremonial sword having done, exactly what, and supports, exactly what? The Arizona Immigration Law. Well at least the Tea Party is clear on this point: no more immigrants, just poor white men poking around in the dirt for where they lost their minds.
