…and that means the end of Mike Gravel’s electoral career.

From the AP:

I just ended my political career. From 15 years old to now, my political career is over, and it’s no big deal. I’m a writer, I’m a lecturer, I’m going to push the issues of freedom and liberty. I’m going to push those issues until the day I die.

You may remember the entertaining Mike Gravel from the few Democratic debates in which he was allowed to participate. After the Democrats began to exclude him from the debates, Gravel left the Democratic party and sought the nomination of the Libertarians.

Along with Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul, Gravel was a staunch anti-war candidate. But what really made him great was his YouTube videos.

As I tribute, I present his greatest hits:

Iraq, rock

Christmas with Mike Gravel

Power to the people. Give peace a chance.

Gravel courts the Obama girl

    Meh. Why was he on the ballot for the Democratic primary in NC?

    Oh and the third video is just great with him talking about “jingoism”. Considering the Libertarian party has no definable platform or ethos other than “Liberty”, I don’t think he has any grounds to talk.
