Slightly smarter and a helluva lot more slimy.
Scalise proudly told his constituents after an election that they got David duke without the baggage.
As for me, I never said I was Danish, I said I wanted a Danish. Liberals will get my danish when they pry it from my cold dead hands.

They dont want decent human beings who care about humanity to run as republicans. They cull them from the start and bide the short term storms of the Santos amongst them.

I can't help remembering what happened with Howard Dean. Times sure have changed.
