Ultra-conservative GOP Rep. Doug Lamborn
barely survived his primary on Tuesday night, squeaking by underfunded challenger Bentley Rayburn with a slim 53-47 win in Colorado's dark-red 5th District.
Then Lamborn went psycho:
Lamborn blamed the close race on President Barack Obama and said that voters are so frustrated with the Affordable Care Act that they are taking it out on Republicans who have been unable to stop the healthcare reform despite their best efforts.
Holy flonking sheep! Obama is now responsible for close shaves in Republican primaries? And this is coming from a guy who voted to
keep the government shut down (and to repeal Obamacare a zillion times, of course). So he's saying he didn't oppose the president
enough? The scary thing is that Lamborn almost certainly believes this—and a lot of other Republicans probably do, too. My word.
