Alan Keyes to Take on Obama. Again.

After losing the Constitution Party's presidential nomination to radio talk-show host Chuck Baldwin, Alan Keyes, (who also lost the election for Illinois Senate to Barack Obama), is set for a rematch.

America's Independent Party announced yesterday that they've nominated Keyes to be their write-in candidate for president. Said party chairman Tom Hoefling:

We may not have balloons, funny hats, and millions of dollars pouring into our coffers from corporate sponsors, but we have something that is much more important: regular folks – housewives, small business people, factory workers, truck drivers, accountants, executives, pastors, moms, dads – good-hearted people who love their country and want to save it. The Republicans and the Democrats no longer represent ‘We the People.’ That’s why we intend to change American politics from the bottom up, by example.

[Ed.'s Note - Sure, but balloons and party hats wouldn't hurt.]
