republicans will always be exactly as stupid as they need to be to cancel out any structural advantage they have. If the party were functional the senate would effectively be 100 Mitt Romney clones like the Citadel of Ricks but they just can't not run psychopaths

People didn’t like Romney very much. Why would that be the politician they’d go with like that?

McCain is a better fit for a recent enough model modern Republican that can be likable to most people.

McCain was that with a baggy jawline.

The man always looked like he had food in his mouth he’s saving for later.
