NO! OF COURSE THEY SHOULDN'T! Let's not be silly here!
I'm more than a trifle confused by this post from the usually sober Tunku Varadarajan. Granted, I'm not a fan at all of the democrats. But the idea of replacing paternalist politicians with paternalist politicians who happen to also be batshit-crazy, unserious and flat out irresponsible is completely beyond me. If you have a house with a leaky roof, you buy a new roof. You don't set it on fire and replace it with a circus tent! From the post:
Personally, I would love to see Paladino and O’Donnell lose, since they've distracted attention from the small-government message by adding in their own social conservatism and cultural weirdness. Republican primary voters need to be reminded to be more grownup, and practical. But there are, of course, many libertarians who would tend to think that anything is better—yes, even Paladino and O’Donnell—than Democrats endorsed by public-employee unions.
Nonsense.
