If this is true... lol

Just how unpopular is President Obama in some parts of the country? Enough that a man in a Texas prison received four out of 10 votes in West Virginia's Democratic presidential primary.
Inmate Keith Judd, 53, is serving 17 years for extortion at the Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution. He was sentenced in 1999 for making threats against the University of New Mexico and is due to be released on June 24 next year.

I find it interesting that people will vote for anyone else in "their" party against someone they do not like or agree with, but they will not consider someone outside "their" party might do a better job. Being affiliated with the "party" seems to be more important than considering the message the individual at least runs on. Whether they will follow through or not is another story.

It gets even funnier when you find out about the guy.

So who is this mysterious challenger? His name is Keith Russell Judd. You can read about him here. Judd says he is a Harvard graduate and claims to be a musician. He says that his mother was Lillian Russell, a famous actress of the 1920s who unfortunately died before he was born. He claims that his father helped design the atomic bomb–a claim that appears equally implausible. Judd says he is a Rastafarian-Christian–whatever that is–and claims to have graduated from the University of California at Los Alamos. As you probably know, Los Alamos is in New Mexico, and no such university exists.

The way Obama has been alienating entire segments of the population lately, The Rep party might just eke out a win with Romney.Too bad it will be a win for the party, but a loss for the country. :(
