Gravel to challenge Obama?

Those Wacky Alaskans

Hey, lefties, I got your Obama primary challenger right here:



Former Alaska Senator and 2008 Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel told The Daily Caller in an exclusive interview that he is mulling a primary challenge to President Barack Obama in 2012.

Apparently running on a 9/11 Truther platform.

In other news about wacky Alaskans, Public Policy Polling confirms what we already know:

Republicans may hate Barack Obama but there look to be a pretty meaningful percentage of them who don't hate him enough to vote to put Sarah Palin in the White House. When you combine that with her complete lack of appeal to Democrats and independents she looks virtually unelectable for 2012.

Like I said yesterday, Branstad was the only Republican who could beat Bob Vander Plaats, and Vander Plaats was the only Republican who would have lost to Chet Culver. So national Republicans need their own Branstad to beat their own Vander Plaats. But who could that be?


If national Republicans would use their braaaains, they could go back to the 80s just like the Iowa GOP did!
