But Terry isn’t one of the many potential Republican hopefuls who will make their case in the premier election state. He’s running against President Obama in the Democratic caucuses.

Terry, whose running mate is effectively a dead fetus, appears to have all the elements of more fringe conservatives. He begins the ad by giving Obama’s full Hussein-y name; borrows Republican Arizona Rep. Ben Quayle’s line about the “worst president in history;” rails against Obama’s “socialist” agenda; and beckons Iowa voters to do something very un-liberal: namely, voting with a sense of principles.

That's bizarre. Why is Randall running as a Dem? Shock value? I read Why Does A Nice Guy Like Me Keep Getting Thrown In Jail a long time ago and it seemed like he was more Christian Reconstructionist...a weird fit for the Democrat party....

Ron Paul: "[Larry McDonald] was the most principled man in Congress."
- The Philadelphia Inquirer


Ron Paul on Congressman Larry McDonald (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_McDonald), the President of the John Birch Society (http://www.jbs.org/).



Ron Paul went to Congressman Larry McDonald, a Democrat, for advice on running for Congress. McDonald said, "Run in the party you think you can WIN because political parties are irrelevant." This made Ron Paul become a Republican.

He's still more or less running unopposed. Bush in 04 and even Reagan in 84 had primary challengers. There's no reason for anti war Democrats to not vote for Paul in the Caucus, if only to make a statement.
