No Grovelling, Please: We're Campaigning...

I read the news today - oh boy!
Presidential candidate Jon Huntsman, formerly the moderate and rather sensible governor of my Pretty, Great and Rather Strange State of Utah, said out loud, in his own voice, in public, that he would probably accept if Michelle (Lady Fruitcake) Bachmann were nominated and asked him to run with her as her VP.
Gasp.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, since we old people do forget things and get things mixed up with other, unrelated (but fascinating) things, BUT isn't Ms. Bachmann the one who claimed that sharia law was in force in "several" American cities? No names offered except for one town that didn't exist anymore, and another one that was astounded to learn it was operating under sharia law. Isn't Ms. Bachmann also the one who recently promised that, if she were President, she would bring back $2 a gallon gasoline? From whence she would bring it, economists and oil futures speculators - not to mention the Princes of OPEC - are still consulting their GPS devices and ouija boards.
I can understand that formerly sensible guv Huntsman really, really, really would like to hold national office, but oh my heck 'n hockeysticks, is he already that desperate? Even Mittens (well, what else is Mitt the diminuitive of?) would probably not sink that low. Besides, I doubt that Mitt and Michelle would be a peaceful pairing - fruitcake and shape-shifting amoebae generally don't mix...
Sorry: I just call 'em like I see 'em - there has got to be some benefit from being so old you don't give a rat's patoot what anybody thinks of what you think.
Point of discussion: Jon Huntsman, please call home - it's very important. You've left your identity on the dresser.
