Former governor of New Mexico and erstwhile Republican candidate for president Gary Johnson has reportedly decided to jump ship and seek the Libertarian Party nomination instead. Politico claims Johnson will make the long-rumored announcement at a press conference in Santa Fe, NM on Dec. 28. Johnson’s Facebook page does list an event on the 28th, but campaign spokesman Joe Hunter is playing coy, committing only to his candidate making “a significant announcement” on the day. The Libertarians will choose their standard bearer at their national convention in (where else?) Las Vegas in May.
Although Johnson’s advocacy of online poker has garnered him much love from the Poker Players Alliance and the 2+2 forum crowd, his campaign has been largely ignored by the Republican cognoscenti and most of the media , a fact underscored by his inability to secure a regular podium spot at the overcrowded Republican nominee debates.
Johnson must shake his head at the continued candidacy of Rick ‘oops’ Perry, who just this week posted a commentary on the death of North Korea’s “Kim Jong the Second” to his campaign website (until it was hurriedly taken down by mortified staffers).
