He's not going to hold office more than one term.

I also could have written, "Any bills he tries to pass will be incomplete."

That might have been better since Tebow was so often off target. But I wasn't wearing my thinking cap at the time.

He could try to pass the bills in another state legislature. He was so often throwing to the wrong jersey, who knows?

People tend to ignore his batsh*t insane ideas because they're just his...he'll get a lot more attention and grief once he tries to legislate his stupidity

Tebow fits Rush Limbaugh's description of Donovan McNabb better than McNabb himself ever did - overhyped and pushed into the spotlight by people with an agenda.

They'll find a nice gerrymandered district of one-toothed Gator fans and he will win.

Oh---and if you've ever seen him interviewed you'll quickly find out he ain't the brightest bulb---and one more oh---will be be the only Virgin in Congress.

He is so naive, they will have him all over the place. He'll make Vitter and company look like amatuers without even knowing what he is doing.
