Think Progress reports (via TMZ) that Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT-03) is a freakin' chowderhead:

Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) recently suggested that former beauty pageant contestant Carrie Prejean would be a serious contender for public office: [Carrie] has the ability to draw crowds and if she has a strong message to go with that, who knows what she can do? She has star power which can open doors. We’ve all made mistakes when we were 17. [The sex tape] is going to be an impediment, but people are excited about her convictions and her beliefs.

They'll just take any famous person. Issues and message never mattered. Not since GOPAC developed the campaign in a box.

Balloon Boy. Octomom. The FreeCreditReport.com band guys. The shiniest nickel you ever saw. Whoever. Whatever.

Got a rich sugar daddy to buy you some fake boobs so you could compete in a beauty pageant? Boo! Where's your dignity?

Filmed yourself masturbating? Pervert! Get lost!

Oppose gay marriage? Welcome to the GOP! Wanna run for something?

We've got airport bathroom toe tappers. Page sex chatters. Diaper wearers. And now, sex tape makers. Whatever! We'll take anybody! We're thinking of talking to a guy who got a lot of hits for a YouTube video of himself shitting in a hat, cuz he says the taxes on the hat were too high.

Revolution in '10, baby!
