To see how Tuesday's midterm rout will change the face of Congress, look no farther than the Bible Belt of southwest Missouri. Voters there replaced Rep. Roy Blunt, a savvy insider, with Billy Long, a smack-talking auctioneer with no college degree but a pithy slogan: "Fed Up."

Yeah that about sums it up as to the depth of the new Congressman-elect from Southwest Missouri. A boastful simpleton, but you did leave one thing out. He has already sold his political soul out to the Washington establishment and is working hard to fill the shoes of the savvy insider he replaces.

In other words, Fed Up has become well fed and soon will be overfed.
