    Oh no, Jason Chaffetz backs out of Senate run!

    No way he just decided to not run.

    I never understood the love of Chaffetz. Do people think he is a supporter of economic liberty because he sleeps in his office? Kudos to him on that, but on the way he votes -- it's pretty bad.

    What, sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty.

    I guess we'll be adding only one sort of sometimes pseudo-liberty Senator joining Rand and Lee next Congress (Jeff Flake). Still better than what we have though.

    He reconsidered his support on the Patriot Act and no opposes it. He's much, much better than Hatch. Who else has Utah got to beat him? He was our best hope there.

    He was born Jewish, but converted to Mormonism. I can understand wanting to see one of your own win when they never have before, but he should have waited for Mike Lee to one day run on a ticket.
