The point I forgot to mention, is that it sure is profitable to be a right wing nutcase, at least a public one.

You know, given citizen’s united I also suspect that running for office becomes a wonderful profit center, even or especially for those who lose. Remember Palin taking the rubes’ cash long after she knew she wasn’t really gonna run?

When spreading bullshit in politics is profitable, maybe making it about policy can get lost in the shuffle. For instance, does Fox news make as much money if Republicans win as if they lose?
