Stupak Out; Fool TBD In

It's great to hear that swindlers and scoundrels such as Bart Stupak are being run out of office (in the sense that they no longer entertain themselves with delusions of re-election). It's be even better if we could run them out immediately.

However, the historian in me reminds me that running the bad guys out doesn't always bring the good guys in.

Russia traded an inept Tsar for a sociopathic Bolshevik (yeah, I thought about it, but "sociopathic socialist" didn't seem right--especially to my readers whose inner voice has a lisp).

Germany traded a pathetic Wiemar regime for Hitler's Third Reich.

Adios, Batista; hola Castro.

See you later, Friends. Welcome, Joey.

Yeah, I just have this nagging suspicion that after the elections in November we'll be reminded again of the old adage: "The more things change, the more they stay the same."
