Rep. Barbara Cubin: When all else fails, threaten to assault the disabled.

[After a political debate]

[Libertarian candidate] Rankin, who has multiple sclerosis and uses an electric wheelchair, said that after the debate Sunday night Cubin "walked over to me and said, 'If you weren't sitting in that chair, I'd slap you across the face.' "

Apparently, if you can't win a debate rationally, Cubin believes the threat of violence is a legitimate tactic.
