Deletion of Rob Oates

Comment: Based on the available coverage and positions held does not seem to pass . Not much in GoogleNewshttp://news.google.com/archivesearch?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=wn&q=%22Rob+Oates%22+caldwell. However, there is one recent story in USATodayhttp://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2008-09-25-50stateidaho_N.htm which mentions him as the chairman of the Idaho Libertarian Party, in connection with the discussion of Bob Barr as being a possible libertarian presidential candidate. I gather that Oates was a Republican before and that this is a recent change.  This may give him a higher profile and maybe wider national and state coverage. Still, for the moment such coverage does not seem to be avaialable
