Well, well, well. It turns out that Edward Failor, executive VP of Iowans for “Tax Relief” and who refuses to allow Ron Paul to take part in his candidates’ forum, is a fan of…GEORGE PATAKI! Does it get more hilarious than this?

I like this part, from the New York Sun: “Mr. Pataki could be a hard sell to small-government conservatives, given that state spending in New York has grown to a projected $75 billion in the coming fiscal year from $43 billion in 1995. Mr. Failor said the increases were the necessary result of growth brought on by aggressive tax cuts.” Oh.

Here’s the whole piece.
