If as they say, “a week can be an eternity in politics” a month must be another matter entirely to a Helena TEA Partier who apparently forgot that he already announced his candidacy for office last month and announced again today.

 

Either that, or he hoped we ourselves wouldn’t remember his botched his first announcement in which he insulted rural communities and ranted against teachers so much that he thought he needed a do-over.

In his original campaign announcement TEA Partier Scott Aspenlieder said he opposed mail ballots because:

 

“voting is about all these rural communities have left.”

 

In other words, this guy thinks rural folk need the diversion that a trip to the polls provides, since they have nothing else in their lives.  We certainly have better things to do than watch him announce his candidacy over and over until he gets it right.
