Since they're mice, they'll probably be Senate Democrats

Mark Kleiman notes that GOP Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell -- who is like Sarah Palin, but without the keen intellect -- has identified the next scientific threat to humanity:

O'DONNELL: ... these groups admitted that the report that said, "Hey, yay, we cloned a monkey. Now we're using this to start cloning humans." We have to keep...

O'REILLY: Let them admit anything they want. But they won't do that here in the United States unless all craziness is going on.

O'DONNELL: They are — they are doing that here in the United States. American scientific companies are cross-breeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains. So they're already into this experiment.

Her concern is doubtless genuine, since if the mice's brains are fully functioning, they'll vote Democratic.
