Earlier today, birther-in-chief Orly Taitz all but announced in WorldNutDaily that she's running for California Secretary of State.
A California lawyer who continues to shepherd several of the high-profile legal challenges to Barack Obama's eligibility to be president says she's ready and willing to investigate the issue herself – as California's secretary of state.
Attorney Orly Taitz told WND today she is considering – and will decide very quickly because of a coming deadline – whether she should submit her own name as a candidate for the state office.
That office supervises elections, and if elected secretary of state, she presumably would have the authority to investigate the qualifications of candidates, since previous officeholders in the state have done just that.
On her blog (which for once seems to be free of malware--at least momentarily), the Mad Moldovan is asking for help in raising the $2,600 filing fee before the March 11 deadline. Given her base of crazies, that shouldn't be too difficult.
Lest you think that California Repubs aren't unbalanced enough to actually put her on the ballot, there's only one other Repub currently in the race, former Stanford star Damon Dunn. And apparently he didn't vote at all until last year.
Needless to say, having Orly in the race would hand Debra Bowen another term with a bow on it. Think about it. All of her crazy statements, both on video, print and in her legal filings. Plus the fact that her site has been infected with malware several times. Oh, and need we mention that it's only a matter of when, not if, she gets disbarred? Plus, it's pretty much a given that even if she loses the Republican nomination, she'll try to get on the ballot as a third-party candidate.
The more I think about it, the more I see this as pure gold. The only thing that would top her being in the race would be if she were disbarred during the campaign.
Pass the popcorn.
