According to HuffPo’s James Boyce, Georgia Senator Saxby Chambliss, as despicable as ever, “has requested that he actually be excused from the December 2nd runoff against Jim Martin and just be declared the winner.”
It’s the bum knee, you see, the one that got him out of Vietnam.

I have already written on this busted system, wherein he (or she) with the most money probably wins. Well, the opening obscenity in this Ebay White House auction took place today, with Mitt Romney buying the “Iowa Straw Poll.”
