Linda McMahon has spent [View all]

pretty much $100,000,000 over two Senate elections and has lost each of them by 12 percentage points.

If this is the kind of business acumen that typical republican idiots want in charge of Congress I seriously overestimated their intelligence... And I never really credited them with having IQ's much above comfortable room temperature to begin with.

I am really really happy to see the end, I hope, of the political career of Linda fucking McMahon.
