March on Washington

Roll Call had an interesting article (sub.req.) out last night explaining how top House GOP leaders are assembling lists of top-flight Chiefs of Staff to match up with those anti-politician Tea Partiers who will be showing up in Washington in January. So they’ll hit the ground running, know the ropes and be able to get started early on getting reelected in two years.

But I’m wondering. First you’ve got the Kentucky Stomp. You’ve also now got word that Fort Richardson is investigating the two active duty soldiers who were working Alaska Senate candidate Joe Miller’s security detail when they detained that journalist a couple weeks ago. With these and other examples, I’m wondering whether the bigger issue might not be help with assembling the paramilitaries these folks are going to bring with them to Washington.
