McInnis Road Trip -- Hope They Have GPS

Our favorite hot tempered ethically challenged former Congressman is set to embark on a tour to announce his candidacy for Governor this week.  I’m glad he’s ending the suspense.  Many of us have been wondering if he’s really running — or just paying up on some debt he lost to one of his lawyer-lobbyist buddies at Hogan & Hartson.  

With Congressman McInnis coming down out of the ivory tower in downtown Denver, I hope he has a GPS unit.  All jokes about him featuring Canadian Rockies on his website aside, I’m a bit nervous that a former 6 term Congressman doesn’t know where the State Capitol is:

Further, for a guy who used to represent the SAN LUIS Valley in Congress, you’d think he’d know how to spell it (see his announcement below):
