Great lineup from Wednesday's Worst Person.
Bronze goes to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly from seeking to implement the incredibly draconian "Operation Sentinel," which aims to track every single vehicle entering the island of Manhattan.
Silver goes to World Class wingnut Rep. Michelle Bachman for spouting some of her "we don't need Pelosi to save the planet because Jesus already did" nonsense.
And, finally, gold goes to aspiring wingnut Ed Tinsley, who's running for Congress in NM, for abandoning all shame and asking his opponent why he wants to kill his two nephews.

On Thursday's Countdown, Keith Olbermann awards the bronze award to Rep.

And finally, the gold goes to Mike Huckabee, for continuing his "The Constitution should be amended to fit the word of God" to do the typically inane biblically-based bash against same-sex marriage.
