Joe Miller to officially launch his campaign on April 21st. He promises to do away with abortion, the IRS, and the Department of Education. Whoa Nelly, this ought to be good!

Claiming that one of the first things he’d do in office is support Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul’s effort to outlaw abortion, Republican Senate candidate Joe Miller also told student groups at the University of Alaska Anchorage on Thursday that he’d work to get the federal government out of people’s lives by turning over power to the states. 

Talking with reporters and speaking in one of his first appearances after keeping himself "under the covers" for several months, Miller said he will announce his candidacy at the Wasilla Lake Resort the evening of April 21.

Why’s he been lying low? No particular reason, he said. 

But that’s changing. His fundraising is up significantly from the last quarter, when he raised $30,000, much less than that raised by his two Republican opponents. Current Lt. Gov. Mead Treadwell took in $228,000 in the quarter, and former Alaska attorney general Dan Sullivan took in $1.3 million. Miller said he’ll release the new fundraising reports soon. His donations for latest quarter are mostly from the “little people,” average donations of about $75, he said. 

Answering questions from the audience, Miller said he plans to win the Republican primary and beat Democratic Sen. Mark Begich. But Begich isn’t his target. It’s a federal government on the verge of bankruptcy and rife with crony capitalism. 

“My ultimate goal is not to get rid of Begich,” he said. “It’s to reverse the course of this country through proper representation of Alaska. That has got to be the goal. And where we’re at today is the result of both parties. It’s not the evil Democrats. It’s not the evil Republicans. It’s the evil Republicans and Democrats.”

So the guy seeking the Republican nomination wants to go to Washington to battle the evil Republicans. Such a great campaign slogan. 

But that's not all he wants to do.

Miller also claims that he wants to do away with the Department of Education, the IRS, and change the country's "surveillance state." Which I assume means doing away with the NSA in its current as well.

All things that I am sure are going to go over big with the establishment Republicans.

However it seems that Miller might be getting some of this talking points from a rather familiar source. Does this sound familiar?

Miller said there’s a broad fracture in the Alaska Republican Party that’s been created by the establishment, without naming names. 

“They’re there for one thing and that’s crony capitalism,” he said. “They don’t care about the platform. They don’t care about restricting the scope of government. They don’t care about fighting for the people. They care about the rewards of office.”

So what do you think, will she, or won't she endorse him again?

My money is on no endorsement, but then again these are insane people so you never know.

Doesn't really matter though, Miller is poison in this state, and the only way he would get this nomination is if the other two contenders  suddenly dropped dead.

Don't laugh, this is Alaska, stranger things have happened.
