We've all been pretty busy trying to sort out the election drama in Mississippi, where we still don't know whether human stain Chris McDaniel or angry great-grandpa Thad Cochran will be the Republican standard-bearer, but we really shouldn't sleep on the Republicans in South Dakota, because stuff is getting plenty weird there. Witness poor poor Annette Bosworth, who started Wednesday by learning she'd lost her primary race from Megyn Kelly on national teevee and ended Wednesday arrested for perjury and election fraud. Heckuva day, Annette!
According to <a href="http:\/\/www.argusleader.com\/story\/news\/politics\/2014\/06\/04\/bosworth-arrested-perjury-election-fraud-charges\/9960773\/" target="_blank">a local paper</a>, Lee Stranahan is one of her aides, and has been writing about the arrest on his blog. I wonder if this interesting technique for getting material was covered in his <a href="http:\/\/wonkette.com\/534258\/wingnut-blogger-sad-lee-stranahan-will-teach-us-how-to-blog-about-politics-and-maybe-how-to-love" target="_blank">political blogging course</a>?
Countries like the Philippines and Haiti that the US of A kinda took over but really didn&#039;t run but always dabbled in everytime they started to take off on their own - they haven&#039;t done well.

Do arrests become part of one&#039;s permanent record?
I ask for a friend.

So you have to <i>personally</i> go out and rustle up signatures if you want to run in SD? That could involve a hell of a lot of driving.
She raised $1.7 million dollars during the campaign ... but spent most of it on ... wait for it ... fundraising efforts, according to her FEC reports.
Bit of Griftzilla in this lady. Also, having pulled in a whopping 6% of the vote, she hardly could have found Megyn&#039;s news to be shocking.
Oy. Stuck in the courthouse untl 3 AM . . . if only there were telephones in the builiding.
Jeez ... somebody got fewer votes than Taintz? That&#039;s pretty embarassing.
I can&#039;t be the only one who had to Google &quot;Hutterite colonies.&quot;
Why do the big square states get so much of this weirdness?
If she hadn&#039;t been hounded by those meanies, she might have gotten 10% of the vote. So there!
CRAPTURE!!!!
So did Edsel.
...and not blah.
