Virginia Republican: "My opponent doesn't care about TEH TROUPZZ. He hates veterans! Here is a picture of a veteran that he hates!"
Her opponent: "My opponent apparently doesn't even know what an American vet *looks like*, because that dude in her posters is in a SOVIET uniform."

Who needs "Virginia" when you've got "Republican" for explanation-of-idiocy power?

Though I have noticed that the women Republicans seem to like in politics are idiots or batshit insane, while the non-Republican women whom Republicans appear to hate the hardest are often noticeably intelligent for politicians (or even, in the case of Warren, for example, intelligent even when compared to non-politicians). The republicans seem to hate smart women opponents more -- or at least speak of them more vitriololically -- than men who oppose them, and pick women less intelligent than most male Republicans to elevate. It's like Republicans can't abide intelligent women or something.

This still doesn't support disgruntledgrrl's suggested that all women in politics are dumber than men in the same field, of course, even if I'm right.

Or like intelligent women won't join an anti-woman party.

It's the same reason why the most prominent non-white Republicans are Herman Cain and Alan Keyes: It takes stupidity to join a political party dedicated to your own destruction, and TRULY IMPRESSIVE stupidity to allow that party to promote you as their token.
