... the actual role this sleazy dirtbag is playing in this political theater?

His job is to make other sleazy dirtbags like Snotty Walker, appear "moderate" and not totally effen insane.

This clown has no more chance of even making thru the primaries, than our Congresscritter Batshit Crazy Lady Bachmann did.

Although he does an exceptional job as a punching bag.
