But they are getting this guy instead as a candidate who spent $2.5 million of his own money just for the primary.

"Trott said the “size and scope of the federal government” is the single biggest problem facing residents of Michigan and called for reducing wasteful government spending and cutting the debt and the deficit. He received backing from business groups."

Sound familiar? Then there is his opposition to ACA.

A carzytown congressman? He sounds sane and perceptive enough in the snippet of description found in the newsstory:

Quote:

Bentivolio, 62, a former teacher, auto designer and reindeer farmer who served in the Army and later the National Guard, lashed out at the Republican party in his concession speech for what he called “cronyism” and embracing money over ideas.

“They have become more interested in power than helping others maintain our liberty,” he said after losing the vote by two-to-one.

All I see from the winner are boilerplate RW talking points....

Anyone can look sane and reasonable with creative editing.
