Buddy Roemer, former Louisiana governor and invisible Republican presidential candidate, was also on the ballot in Iowa. Roemer, who refuses corporate and PAC money and who also limits individual contributions to $100 per person, has been unsuccessful getting noticed by the media and voters. He was very frustrated during the debates, being denied even an opportunity to share the stage with the better known candidates. Last night, he went on a Twitter binge that was hilarious. Here are a some of his best tweets:
