Will Paul Gets the Last Laugh? (Election Results Tonight)

by Liberty and Power

Paul is leading more than 2 to 1 in early returns for reelection to Congress against pro-war conservative Chris Peden. There is no Democratic candidate in November.

While only a fraction of the results are in, Paul is ahead in every county which has reported returns. See here for regular updates.

PAUL WINS IN A LANDSLIDE! The snarky Wonkette, which gleefully predicted otherwise, is deeply saddened.

Apparently, Peden was also a pro-NASA nut who wanted a crash effort to send spaceships throughout the galaxy.

While I still think that the Paul candidacy was a net detriment to libertarianism, which attracted more nuts than anyone since Fr. Coughlin, I don't quite see how anyone could vote for an opponent who was described by his friends as "...a certified CPA, a churchgoing family man, and a practiced hand at worming cattle."

Maybe the voters in District 14 didn't want bend over and be "wormed," yet again?
