Salon has this interesting article about Michigan’s U.S. House race, 11th district. That district went from being a safe seat for the Republican incumbent, Thad McCotter, into a district that is wildly unpredictable. McCotter failed to get 1,000 valid signatures on his petition to be on the Republican primary ballot, and then decided not to be a write-in candidate in the primary.

Easily the biggest blunder of any candidate of any party in any state for the 2012 election season. McCotter is now officially the stupidest man in American politics.
He was depressed about being involved in the DC goon show and left the petty details to an incompetent staffer. There are many better ways to spend your life.
