David Brat


You have to admit--it’s a great name for a Tea Party candidate.

Columnist Gail Collins pointed out today that nearly 14% of eligible voters in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District went to the polls.  She also noted that Virginia has one of those primaries in which Democrats are able to vote in the Republican primary.   If I had been voting in that district, would I have voted for Brat?  Of course.  I’m a real jerk that way.  I’m sure there were more like me.

Let’s get some perspective here.  One primary out of 435 districts.  14% of the eligible voters.  The guy defeated not very likable.  

Don’t read too much into this.   Settle down.  Take some deep breaths.
