My dad was watching Fox News last night and Roemer was on talking about his run for president. He might be a serious challenger to Obama. He doesn't seem insane like the tea party types, he has experience both in Congress and as a governor. I find it odd however that he is complaining about corporations corrupting our political system and how they are sending all our jobs overseas when his party is the nothing but the party of big business. I don't support him of course, but I have to admit I admire his pledge to not take corporate or PAC money, though I'm sure he will weasel his way out of it. Anyway what do you all know of him and do you think he could be a serious threat to Obama?

1. The more the merrier. But the GOP may have to get a bigger clown car. |

I can't see Romer as a serious possibility for the GOP nomination, though.
