Why Hast Thou Forsaken Alan Keyes, Constitution Party?
This is an outrage! An outrage, I tell you!
Those blockheads in the Constitution Party — who are having their convention in Kansas City today — have decided to forgo humanitarian and supergenius Alan Keyes as their presidential nominee.
Instead, they're going with pick some radio talk show host guy named Chuck Baldwin just because he's really a member of the Constitution Party and didn't just didn't switch over to get the nomination. Where is the fairness?!
The pick was seen as something of an upset, given Keyes' higher national profile. Known for his fiery stem-winders, Keyes is a two-time GOP presidential candidate who abandoned the Republican Party this month to join the Constitution Party, which believes in limited government and is committed to ending abortion and bringing American troops home from Iraq.
But Baldwin's roots in the Constitution Party run deeper. He was the party's 2004 vice-presidential candidate, and party members said his stands were more in line with party thinking.
So… fucking… what?!?! This isn't some ridiculous hilarious joke of a candidate we're talking about here! This is Alan Fucking Keyes!!
"They just rejected the most qualified man to be president," said Tom Hoefling of Lohrville, Iowa, Keyes' national political director. "Chuck Baldwin will have no impact on this election whatsoever."
Completely unlike Alan Keyes.
Amen, Mr. Hoefling. A fucking men.

Alan Keyes not on the Constitutional Party ticket?!?!?!??! That is finally IT!! I am moving to Canada!!!
Tom Hoefling may well be the finest comedy routine in contemporary politics. He has worked for the most incredible pile of pathetic losers. Something almost masochistic in his passionate commitment to bellyflopping failure.
Just Google his name and the long litany of obscure and now defunct organizations in which in was the " chairman" becomes apparent.
I just built a new forum for discussing Chuck Baldwin. It links to the associated forums for John McCain, Barack Obama, and Bob Barr. There's plenty of room for discussion. My present point of view is that I will vote for Chuck Baldwin in November. However, I do not know enough about him and his political point of view to be determined. Also, the Republican VP pick may make a difference. Participate in the new forum at

Hoefling?…Pfffft!!
The only people who haven;t figured out that Alan Keyes is a self absorbed headcase are themselves self absorbed headcases.
Ouch. Guess you have to find someone else to endorse, InDecider http://blog.indecision2008-q.mtvi.com/2008/04/01/inkeyescision-2008-officially-endorses-alan-keyes-for-president/
You have got to check out his explanation for his shabby treatment by the Constitution Party:

"The Lord shared with me that, Alan, the child that you are defending in the womb … in the act of procreation, people are joyfully, ecstatically, with great joy in every fiber of their being, saying "yes" to the coming of that new life. The invite the child in. And then in abortion, they kill it. So what, in point of fact my political career is, is the paradigm and pattern of that which I am trying to stop for the child. I kind of represent, in political terms, the abortion. You're invited in, but they kill you. You're invited in, but they kill you."
