UT-Dan Jones: Sen. Hatch only 3rd in GOP primary, lead Matheson (D) by only 7

[Associate Justice PiT]

Well, he's a toast, just like Bob Bennett. I must say, although I disagree with Hatch on most of the issues, it's a shame. This seat won't go Democratic anyway (), and now, after all, very experienced and intelligent, we have to admit despite all differences, Senator, who have a record of some common sense and working across the lines to achieve common goals, is going to be replaced by just another, useless Tea Party idiot, who don't know Senate is about work, not obstructing every s**t.

This is GOP now.

1. Chaffetz is a Representative. I'm pretty sure he knows how to, you know, represent.
2. Orrin Hatch has made collected efforts to destroy the Internet. I don't see how anything can redeem that.

     There does happen to be a long tradition of useless idiots permeating the House, though, so point 1 doesn't make that much sense.

Be that as it may, my main point was to refute Kal's point that Chaffetz is apparently a random Tea Party nobody.

     Indeed, Chaffetz was elected before the Tea Party became a dominant force. Given the ultra-conservative nature of Utah, he probably wouldn't need the Tea Party to successfully primary Senator Hatch anyway.
