Another Politician Gets It

Regarding the voters re-electing Jesse Jackson Jr. to congress after he has skipped out of work for the past 4 months or so, in plea deals regarding illegal behavior and pretty much acting like his father: a Chicago thug.
From the Chicago Sun Times:  Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. “cheated” the voters.
But, knowing as much as they did, those who re-elected the MIA congressman are “crazy, mindless voters who are taking orders from downtown.”
Those were some of the reactions from Jackson’s just vanquished rivals as they took in the surprise news that the freshly re-elected South Shore Democrat is in plea negotiations for alleged misuse of his campaign funds.
The surprise development also raises the possibility, should Jackson step down or be forced out, of a costly special election straddling at least three counties right after a general election was just held.
Word of the plea talks set off another flurry of interest in the 2nd Congressional District seat. The district includes some of the most economically devastated portions of the city but ostensibly has had no representation since Jackson went on leave in June.
Marcus Lewis, who ran as an independent Tuesday, voiced his frustration with voters, who gave Jackson 63 percent of the vote. 
“We’re dealing with crazy, mindless voters who are taking orders from downtown. The 181,000 that voted for Jesse in spite of knowing that the man is up on charges, knowing that he cheated on his wife,” he said. “Knowing that he has a 244-page ethics investigation. They’re crazy!”   http://www.suntimes.com/16259710-761/rival-rep-jackson-cheated-voters-by-not-revealing-plea-deal-talks.html
Crazy, mindless voters.  Pretty much describes Obama voters.
