Justin Amash Will Not Run For US Senate

Talking Points Memo is reporting that House member Justin Amash (R-MI) will not run for the US Senate.

BTW, Amash, like Rand Paul, is not identifying himself as a libertarian but as a "Libertarian Republican", constitutional conservative, etc.

I'm proud to be an American, libertarian R, constitutional conservative & classical liberal. Happy Constitution Day! http://t.co/U1KAB434R3

The difference between these guys and principled libertarians should be clear, as it must be political calculation that causes them to fear being considered straight out libertarians. But they sure do like libertarian votes and campaign contributions.
