I once read that a few hundred years ago, wealthy older women in Gibraltar kept baboons as pets. It was thought that being seen surrounded by baboons would make them appear more beautiful by comparison. And I can't help but think that the present array of Republican hopefuls is part of a carefully orchestrated plot to make Mitt Romney seem almost sane and reasonable by surrounding him with utter lunatics. The question occurs, do the lunatics understand that they are being used for this purpose? Are their candidacies being directed from above, or have they arisen spontaneously from that vast pool of public irresponsibility we call the Republican Party?
Don't kid yourself. Republican politics may seem fairly messy at the bottom, but they're always directed from the top. Remember, the Tea Partisans get their money from the Koch brothers.
