Bob Barr, the libertarian candidate for president, is suing to block McCain and Obama from being on the ballot in Texas.
Seems Texas law sets a deadline for filing papers to be on the ballot, and both conventions took place after the deadline.
I think he actually has a very strong argument. I wonder if the Texas legislature will change the law. Barring that (ha ha), I think it would be fascinating if Texas is suddenly irrelevant to the presidential election.
And it's astonishing that both campaigns and both parties could overlook something that important. I suspect a couple people are being fired today.
