The number one story yesterday – a peon Pawlenty staffer got hammered in Ankeny, Iowa, and while drunk out of his mind, tried to get into the wrong house.

Daughter got scared, father got the gun (and, thankfully, realized what was going on), and it’s a big story.

Of course, living next to a college, this is not an unusual thing; I had the same exact thing (minus the gun and the campaign connection) two months ago.

The lesson is this; if you’re going to be a peon staffer who gets hammered and does somethings stupid out in the middle of nowhere, for God’s sake don’t be a Republican.
