God help us, another Sarah.

It appears that the very butch, helmet-haired Joni Ernst, the Republican senate nominee in Iowa, shares something in common with Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. She's also stupid. She recently made quite a stir with her belief that states can nullify Federal laws, which, of course, they cannot. Not that this will hurt her in any way. The tried and true Republicans seem to have endless tolerance for misspeaks, malapropisms, and misinformation. Intelligence is not something they demand from their senators or representatives. Far more important is how devoted any office seeker is to magical thinking of the Christan evangelical type, how much do they love guns and hate blacks, and most important how much do they resent having that uppity Barack Obama in the White House. Ernst has already proven herself on all these subjects, her recent confusion about facts is just the icing on the cake.
