My interview with Buddy Roemer, the GOP’s long-shot 2012 candidate

I have a short profile of Buddy Roemer up on The Daily Beast today. The former governor of Louisiana, who lost to infamous neo-Nazi David Duke in a primary bid for re-election, now says he’s looking at running for president in 2012.

A taste from the article:

As governor, he became something of a state joke when he entrusted his emotional well-being to a new-age guru who instructed him and his staff to ward off negative thoughts by snapping a rubber band on their wrists and saying, “Cancel. Cancel.”

Yes, he’s that kind of  candidate. At least he’s bringing up a serious, mostly ignored issue. Read all about him here.
