Paul Broun runs for Senate by trolling his colleagues

Georgia’s nuttiest Republican pulls his colleagues and fellow Senate candidates closer to the fringe

Georgia Republican Rep. Paul Broun, a total nutcase, is running for U.S. Senate.

I’m just going to quote myself writing in January about Broun’s decision to run:

Georgia’s primary election runoff rules might prevent Broun from eking out a plurality victory over a bunch of less-crazy candidates, but even if he doesn’t win, he’ll definitely push the entire field further to the edge of the fringe that the national party has been trying to back away from since November.

Yes, Broun may legitimately be an idiot, but he knows what Georgia Republican primary voters want: someone who thinks a lawmaker’s job is best performed as a sort of high-level trolling of his colleagues, and liberals. So Broun is now just lying to leadership and setting his opponents up to vote “yes” on things, even though voting “no” is always the True Conservative option.

This is going to be a fun one, too bad one of these horrible people will be in the Senate eventually.
