When I woke up Saturday morning, I was rather surprised to see this e-mail in my inbox:


Kerry King cordially invites you to his announcement for candidacy for a State General office on Tuesday, May 25, 2010 at 5:30 pm, at the Crowne Plaza Inn, Warwick, RI.
 
King promises to outline his program to rebuild Rhode Island as a state with less government, lower taxes and more jobs. King is a lawyer, financial planner and an executive with the experience of directing 11,000 employes and responsible for a $900 million budget.
 
"I will lead the charge for state constitutional amendments that will insure less government and impose fiscal restraint...and prevent legislators from continuing to ignore the will of the people," King said.

Governor Carcieri, honored guests, friends and supporters will join Kerry for a brief program followed by refreshments.


     Kerry King seems to want some mystery, but it didn't last long.  According to the Providence Journal , Kerry King will be running for General Treasurer.  So far, King is the only Republican in the race.
