Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) will get a primary challenger in 2010:

Katy resident Tim Graney has announced his candidacy for the 14th Congressional District, challenging maverick Republican incumbent Ron Paul.

Grainey, a former small business owner who will be entering his first political race, said the district needs a new voice in Congress, particularly in the area of foreign policy.

“It is time for Ron Paul to step down and step aside so he can pursue his own interests while a new statesman emerges to represent the district,” Graney said. “I told him so Sunday afternoon.”

“I am a fiscal conservative, but I do not support Ron Paul’s weak foreign policy views, nor do I support his do whatever you want ultra-Libertarian views that conflict with our American values,” Graney said.

Graney apparently went up to Paul and told him to get used to seeing his name around the district. Graney must not know that Dr. Paul has had primary challengers before. In 2008, he beat Chris Peden with 70% of the vote and in 2006, he beat Cynthia Sinatra with 77%.

It’s safe to say the voters of the 14th District like their representative and will be sending him back for another term.
