Until last week, Mitt Romney had trouble getting potential voters to care so much that they would crawl over ground glass to get to the polling station and vote for him. But now, the man and moment may have come together, thanks to employees of the General Services Administration and the Secret Service.

If these scandals prove anything, it would be that there are people in the government with way too much time on their hands and far too little regard for their mission.  Plainly the sort of people that the enterprise could safely be shed of.
