Nazi Re-Enactors Trip Up Dems, Too

We're all familiar with Rich Iott, the Republican House candidate from Ohio whose proclivity for dressing up in Nazi uniforms--he's a WW2 reenactor--has gotten him in trouble. (Although not so much trouble that presumptive House Speaker John Boehner won't campaign with him tomorrow.)
