I find your position quite balanced, but unfortunately after the violent and somewhat abusive response from some developers, I maintain that most may not be ready from prime time. Some of the "leaders at the intesection" that you name, including Clay, were rather dismissive, as I doubt they understood the irony and the deeper argument. Interestingly, Jim Gilliam did nothing else than proposing a petition for me to refudiate my "bigoted" remark (see http://act.ly/27f?page=1). I'm sure these are all great people, deserving testifying at the Congress. I would argue they need to soften some edges before running for Congress.

How many will actually run is the question - but Congress needs shaking up - especially from the Tech sector. Follow me on Twitter @ideagov This is a great post.
