The mainstreaming of paleo-libertarian isolationist Ron Paul in the GOP continues apace, as wacky Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann announces she’s a convert to the Paulian cult, and has invited the crazy uncle to speak as an expert on monetary policy: Bachmann to host town hall with Rep. Ron Paul.

In an interview with AM 1280 on Saturday, Rep. Michele Bachmann announced that she will have Rep. Ron Paul as her guest for a September town hall forum in St. Cloud.

“I’ll be doing another town hall up in the St. Cloud area in September and we’ll do that on monetary policy. Ron Paul is going to come in and we are going to host something on monetary policy,” Bachmann said.

Bachmann is a convert to the Ron Paul movement, sometimes attending the congressman’s weekly lunches.
