I kinda doubt it. The guy's got a certain charm and Willie Nelson is backing him.

7. Kinky Friedman isn't a real candidate.
He has been put in the race to draw votes away from the real democrat running. This happened last time when Chris Bell was running.

9. What has Hightower said about this?
And also, if you know, what conservative ideas did Friedman promote previously? I know there were some, but I'm having a brain freeze. I wanna know WHY I'm against this guy.:-)
