Buddy Roemer, the former governor of Louisiana, is running for president. He is best known for losing re-election in 1991, coming in third (Louisiana had free for all elections – with everybody, regardless of party, running in a “primary” in October, with the top two vote-getters running against each other in a December run off).

He came in behind KKK leader David Duke and another former governor, Edwin Edwards, who had been indicted on federal corruption while governor (later in the decade, he was finally imprisoned).

This man is looking at the GOP field for president and thinks to himself: “I could totally beat these people.”

Now, a personal message to Mitt Romney, the de facto frontrunner: “Mittens, this is pretty representative of how little respect Republicans have for you.”
