The Republican Racket

The Republicans have figured out a pretty effective and cynical style of running for office. It's simple and easy, and goes like this:

1. Lie. About yourself, your opponent, and objective reality.
2. In the unlikely event that the media points out the lies, call them biased.
3. Repeat.

It's depressingly predictable.

And that's about all I can say about the speeches last night.
