It's looking increasingly as though former two-term New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson is going to be throwing his hat into the ring for the 2012 presidential race.  He's not a clone of Ron Paul, but he's someone libertarians ought to consider getting behind.  Check it out: http://www.JohnsonForAmerica.com

In my opinion he's even better, especially when it comes to immigration and abortion, but that's just me.

He won't be able to reprise the Paul coalition because of immigration and abortion.

But if he stays with the anti-Fed anti-war on drugs message, he'll get some populist support.
