Is this a stupid idea?
I'm thinking that by going to tea party meetings and bringing up all the GOP legislation over the next 2 years will motivate them to nominate even crazier, unelectable fucks in the GOP primaries come 2012.

4. Given that 27% of the population is certifiable...
And that another 15% to 30% can more or less easily be persuaded to vote with the certifiable ones..

Then "crazy" isn't nearly the barrier to getting elected you think it is, in fact it's a plus in more than a few districts.

5. Generally speaking the asking of that question is the answer.
Just saying. It's like sayin' "dude, hold my beer."
