He also says and does some pretty nutty stuff, but I love him from a policy standpoint.
He does a good job grandstanding on government excess, particularly in the area of earmarks. As small a part of the budget as they are, earmarks essentially amount to well-connected folks getting to loot the nation's treasury -- what's to like about that?
Also, he's a Sigma Nu, so there's that.
