Looks like Obama has his first primary challenger, the extreme anti-abortion activist Randall Terry. Ads are set to run in Iowa where he'll soon be campaigning.
This should crank up the level of craziness. ..
"Terry made a name for himself as the founder of the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue, but even the pro-lifers there found his antics a little extreme (he essentially justified the murder of Kansas abortion doctor George Tiller), and they broke with him years ago. Since then, he's been a one-man anti-abortion sideshow, appearing at tea party rallies dressed in chains and a death mask, getting arrested at Obama's speech at Notre Dame in 2009, acting out granny-killing death panel skits to protest health care reform, and generally making a nuisance of himself.
But lest you think that Terry is a single issue presidential candidate, his ads will denounce the president on a host of issues—everything from Obama's position on gays to the Wall Street bailout, and from China to oil drilling in the arctic. Terry claims that he will be expressing what Republican leaders should be saying but are too afraid to. "I am simply saying what John Boehner or Mitt Romney should say daily; apparently they do not posses the courage or clarity of thought," he said in a press release announcing the new ads."
