I missed that one. Dude is just as out there as a number of other members of congress. HuffPo stokes the fires of sensationalism again!

What's funny (and by that I mean bad for the GOP) is that the Tea Party still thinks this is some sort of amazing game-changer sent from on high by the Lord Himself, when in reality nothing is going to change by replacing one guy that your opposition hates with another guy they'll probably hate even more.

It's bait and switch. The GOP has been playing the same game with the socially conservative members of their party since Reagan and they still haven't caught on. It's not going to change a damn thing.

The democrats started playing the same bait and switch with fiscal liberals during the Clinton administration. At least some of them are catching on.
