“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Tenessee's 8th Congressional district

If I endorse one man in Thursday's Tennessee Republican primary, it would have to be Dennis Bertrand. What makes me go out and endorse a Republican in a primary race? Check out his opponent James Hart's campaign website. Yep, that's a eugenics question in the top corner.

I wonder what impact a Hart victory would have on GOP turnout in the fall. At this point, neither Hart nor Bertrand stands a chance against Democratic Rep. John Tanner who has held the seat for 15 years now.

Check out Hart's campaigning style:
He shows up at voters' homes wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a gun, and tells them that "white children deserve the same rights as everyone else."

Wow.
