Which state is having the most appalling campaign season?

Wow, so much competition.

There’s Arizona, where Jan Brewer, the immigrant-bashing governor, stomped away from her horrible debate performance while reporters yelled: “Governor, please answer the question about the headless bodies!” Always hard to beat a state with a headless-bodies controversy.

She goes on to name a few other states, but first adds this about Arizona:

Arizona got additional awfulness points when Brewer announced that she was not participating in any future debates since she only needed to do just that one to get public campaign funds. Still more when she said she would probably change her mind if her poll numbers dropped. Even more for the fact that they haven’t.
