Who gets your vote for the craziest politician in America today?

[riverdeep]

There are sadly, too many to choose from. Michelle Bachman is a good choice, Michael 'hip-hop' Steele is another. But there's this guy from Georgia that caught my eye:

Georgia gubernatorial candidate Neal Horsley, a.k.a. “The One,” wants to secede from America because of the liberals. This charming fellow made headlines a few years ago when he got into an argument with Alan Colmes, who simply couldn’t understand why Horsley would fuck the shit out of mules.

Asked if he was ready to sacrifice his own son in a national insurrection, Horsley recounts a fight with his son where he almost killed him.

“I was one foot from killing my own son, or hurting him really, really bad,” Horsley told Krider. “If he would have attacked me again, I would have stuck him. Or cut him or sliced him or done something to stop him. That’s the point, you hypothetical has literally already been worked out with me, and that’s what makes me different from the other candidates for Governor. They understand I’m not like no politician they have looked at, ever. I am prepared to do a John Brown. I’m not prepared to do an Abe Lincoln and talk out both sides of my mouth and try to get a majority together. I’m looking for the people who are prepared to go with me and take over the foundry, then set up shop and prepare to fight to the death. I’ll do it.”

I don't know if you can make this stuff up, not the least of which is a guy named Horsley who has sex with mules. He's my current choice, but I'd love to hear other candidates. They can be from any political stripe, Democrats have been known to be crazy sometimes as well (Marion Berry, for example).
