Fjetland says the strangest things
House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Sugar Land) surprised bloggers, media, and fellow candidates when he appeared at a candidate forum yesterday after much blogger speculaton suggested he would not.
Kristen Mack's coverage had this entertaining line:
"I didn't think he was going to be here," [independent candidate Michael ] Fjetland said. "If I had known, I would have prepared better, but I winged it. If he didn't show up, he realized he was going to look bad."
That sort of preparation must surely inspire confidence in voters.
Fjetland has been saying all sorts of entertaining things lately. In a recent blog interview with Charles Kuffner, he noted that he hoped a post-DeLay Washington would be more civil:
With DeLay gone we might be able to get back to some kind of civilized behavior in Congress.
With no apparent sense of irony, he then proceeded to call DeLay names:
My only regret will be if the bastard gets back in.

Any replacement won't be as bad as that power drunk moron.
Fjetland practices a strange form of "civilized behavior."
