Really, at what point do these paranoids with PC's jump the shark? Is this it? What kind of insanity can we expect when they finally realize that they are cornered by their lies?
The crazier they get, the more the average non-political person will tune them out and vote against them. However, we should never underestimate the ability of these nutjobs to play the fear card, though I am hoping most have caught on to that con as well. My fear is just what these crazies will do when they realize the've irretrievably lost their ability to connect to power.
We've all had that experience of talking to someone who seemed pretty normal and rational, but as the conversation goes on and veers into more conspiratorial territory there is that point where the switch in your brain goes from "normal, likable person" to "whoa, I'm stuck talking to a nutbar". These RW blogs touting this story are well into that territory.
