The lesson learned from Sue Lowden's travails? There is a limit to the idiocy a politician can spout. Mid-recession supply-side economics, "whats a magazine?", there were no domestic attacks under Bush, crypto-socialism, death panels, Census conspiracies, birth certificates; it seemed like there was no assertion so stupid that it would turn voters off. Sue Lowden dug deep and found an unforgiving rock-bottom at "pay your doctor in chickens". I guess there might be hope for American democracy after all.
