Barnum would be jealous of.  [...] […] I posted the following thoughts about the Speakership election on my blog: The circus that is the Pennsylvania State House of Representatives has an uncertain future, thanks in large part to the large number of amatuer members the chamber contains.  The PA House can certainly be equated with a circus, and it isn’t a stretch - there are plenty of rings, not just three, making this circus the world’s biggest.  You have members of this chamber who openly disregard a constitution it swears to uphold.  You have members being bought off with campaign contirbutions or with nice cushy jobs after leaving the circus, and you have a circus master who P.T.
