Oh, I've met a few "wacktavists" in my time in politics...
One of my favorite local characters is this 4'11", 80 lbs. woman who pops pills like they're Skittles. She gets very concerned about the stress levels of campaign staffers, and leaves them gifts of Vicodin and Valium. Not sure that pharmacutically enhanced staffers help effectuate change, but she seems to think it's the way to go. And God forbid she get a hold of your e-mail address, because she will absolutely inundate your inbox with forwards. God bless her heart, she's a kook, but she keeps it interesting.
