Quote of the day: Enough with the crazy stuff

Enough with the crazy stuff. I was a geeky adolescent, reading Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged,” Isaac Asimov’s “Foundation Trilogy” and all the rest. But I understood something important: it’s all FICTION. You do not have to give up your fascination with fantasyland, but channel your energies productively by watching post-apocalyptic television like “The Walking Dead” or “Revolution.” Then repeat after me: Barack Obama was born in the United States, we don’t need a state militia to protect us from zombies, and polio was eliminated because of vaccines.

— Kathy Sullivan, former New Hampshire Democratic Party chair, offering advice to the New Hampshire Republican Party.

It sure didn’t take NHDP long to respond. “Ovide Lamontagne. Funny name, dangerous plan,” intones the the narrator.
