GOP Candidate Tommy Thompson: Dim Bulb?
Most Buffoonish GOP Candidate Enters Presidential Fray

By Debbie Schlussel

Possibly the dumbest Republican to hold a cabinet position in contemporary times is running for President.
Schlussel is a semi-regular on Howard Stern's morning flatulence. Obviously, she has learned a few tricks from the King of all Egos.

Former Wisconsin Governor and ex-Bush HHS Secretary, Tommy Thompson is running for President. Because even the mediocre, bumbling set need a representative in the race, apparently.

Having lived in Wisconsin for 5.5 years while I went to Law School, Business School, and worked (all while he was the Guv), I had the misfortune of seeing up close what a nincompoop this guy is. It's laughable that he'd run.

Bush is thinking: "Why did I pick this idiot?"
But he probably thinks that whoever ultimately gets the GOP Presidential nod might be dumb enough to pick him--an ostensibly conservative governor from a Midwestern state with no skeletons save for lack of a brain--to be a running mate.

G-d help us all if that happens. Bush picked Tommy Thompson as HHS Secretary to pay off a political debt in a position where he thought the bloviating Beer-and-Cheesehead-State boob would do the least harm. But he was wrong and soon regretted the decision...
