Everytime I see him on TV, I want to go all Antifa on his ass.

Unfortunately, Arkansas has no one capable of taking him down. It's rather sad not to have a shot in state to Clinton, Bumpers, Fulbright, Mills, et al.

him around many counties for a couple months.

For a couple years, he was considered an up-and-comer. I think if he would have beaten Lincolnon the primary, he probably would have beaten Boozman, who's still one of our senators. He has zero personality and is the epitome of a back-bencher...definitely the more beatable of our two senators.

A drawback to Halter--he's a devout Catholic, which does not help in Arkansas.
