My home state of Georgia persists in electing sleazy, dishonest demagogues rather than more honest men. For those who don't remember, in 2002 Chambliss defeated Democratic incumbent Max Cleland, a Vietnam veteran who lost three limbs after throwing himself on a grenade. Chambliss won by running ads that juxtaposed Cleland's face with images of Osama bin Laden and accused Cleland of being soft on terrorism and national defense.
