So I'm part of the way through Andy Borowitz's "Profiles in Ignorance," just past Reagan and...

...partly through Quayle.

Borowitz is, of course, a funny guy, but it's a painful book to read. I might have had a breakdown if Walker won, because even among this set of fools, from Reagan through the Bushes to Trump, Walker was a whole new level.

1. Great book!

I had forgotten about some of the eejits we have had to live through!

I bought 2 copies for gifts.

2. The section on Reagan was worth the read by itself. I knew he was dumb, but appreciated it on a...

...whole other level.

What was disturbing to read was how the media went out of its way to cover up the truth about this guy.

3. What scares me is

there likely is someone out there who is even worse than Walker. In recent years, we've learned there is no bottom with these people. There is always something worse waiting in the wings.

Shit we thought Palin was as ding-bat as they come. Little did we know!

4. i have this book on my wish list,

which has been distributed to all of my sons. hopefully i'll be reading it come January.

Walker will no doubt fade in a way that sadly, trump never will. it's a scandal that the race was as close as it was.

5. Walker will be the poster boy for bad candidates for decades to come.
