The Unapologetic Candidates

Every party has that one candidate that does themselves no favors by clearly, on most points, being on the side of the other party. While the Republicans clearly have two, one of whom is a front-runner, the Democrats this year have exactly one. These guys definitely have the chutzpah to spare, and that earns them a special place in my blog. So in the spirit of saying something outlandish and sticking to it, I present you, my readers, with this week’s featured candidates:

Ron Paul – Sticks to his guns, no matter how many potshots are taken at him, not that he doesn’t draw fire with almost every opinion he expresses. I wouldn’t so much say he should run as a Democrat, but he clearly shows his died in the wool Liberterian roots that earned him their nomination in 1998.

Bill Richardson – If he were pro-war and anti-abortion, he would look far more conservative than Guiliani.
