We’ve just received our second political mailer from “Citizen Super PAC. Not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee,” suggesting that Justin Fareed is the leader we need.

Of the four promises on the flier, I wonder how a freshman congressman (assuming he is elected) thinks he can “Clean House in Washington and Rein in Federal Spending” and “Get Bureaucrats Out of the Way of Our Job Creators.” Oh, and he also promises to “Take On Obamacare.”

I don’t know Mr. Fareed, but I know that he has a poor grasp on reality.
