  • Rep. Jeanne Schmidt got hit by a car.

    This one is weird. While running, she was hit by a car... LAST WEEK. Then she passed out on Monday due to "severe pain." What sort of person gets hit by a car, suffers severe pain and doesn't see a doctor? Good god! We all know Schmidt is a cold, mean customer, but is she actually into pain? I mean, what's up with that?

  • I don't know, but the injuries sounded reasonably serious.

    And, she is/was a triathelete.

  • Yeah. I know I'm a little twisted, but there's sumthin' a little s&m-y about Schmidt.... :)

    Any way... back to real issues. Did you see that Ben Smith piece... I'm Voting for Obama Anyway? Freakin' crazy, man.

  • It's because the only way we all know her is from her "wicked witch" moment when she called Murtha a traitor on the House floor.

    And, yeah, that's the first link in this post.

  • D'Oh! I know I found it from some link earlier today!

    (I'm an idiot...)

  • I don't expect everybody to chase down all the links.

    What it tells me is that I didn't "tease" that item well enough.
