Ron Paul is in!

I’ve confirmed that Rep. Ron Paul, R-Tex., will announce his presidential exploratory committee tomorrow in Des Moines. At the same time, according to a source close to Paul, he will announced his Iowa leadership team, which will include three of the 19 members of the Iowa Republican Party’s state central committee.

This is Ron Paul’s third attempt, second as a GOP candidate. Saddle up another goat, the 2012 Goat Rodeo just got a little more interesting, at least until people realize that he is (consistently) INSANE.

    If you take all his campaign photos and bind them in sequence into a flip book, you can watch his hairline recede. Other than that, I don’t see the attraction.

    Remember that he raised $5M in a SINGLE DAY the last time he ran. Word to the wise: never underestimate crazy.

      Tommy –

      Word.

      Within 10 minutes of this post going up, I already got a ton of comments telling me I was an Obama fan boy, blah-blah-blah. Clearly none of them have read MPS, but felt compelled to tell me about my own brainwashing.

      Whatevs, Paulites, whatevs.

  6. For your infotainment, here’s a newsreel I shot of Ron Paul’s campaign kickoff rally for ’08, held in November of ’07 in Philly. Muthafuckin’ cold it was, that day, too. See the embryonic Tea Party emerging. They were all there — 9/11 Truthers, NWO conspiracy l00ns, militia nuts, you name it. Never before had so many pissed-off white people paid three dollars a gallon to drive their SUVs to Philly to cheer for Ron Paul:
