All that may be assuming a level of competence on their part that doesn't actually exist. Based on the ill-informed discussions I've heard at MGA committee hearings, I wouldn't trust most of those half-wits to properly transpose a recipe for making hot water.
"Equity" as applied to legislators. That's just so Maryland . . . except that it seems to be becoming universal.
The level of intelligence, or even sense, that's being demonstrated by the more publicity-hungry members of Congress is little less than appalling. Couple that with the horrific media coverage, the mud-slinging and general level of slime both applied to and exuding from the candidates, and there's little to attract the more meritorious and competent to run for public office.
