If Paul wasn’t a moonbat on the war

His opinions on the war is shared by over two-thirds of the country. How are the other RINOs going to get these votes?

With Paul, the war stand is neutralized with Hillary, who doesn't have any credibility. He'll be able to pull off a huge chunk of her base in the general election.

Furthermore, Paul would still leave behind a contingent of troops to keep going after bin Laden.

And this guy was favored by 2/3rds of voters on American Idol for a while.

Just because it wins a popularity contest doesn't mean it is right.

I don't want a candidate who panders to the idiocy some voters. I want a (Get this!) principled candidate who says what's right instead of what's popular. A staggered surrender (The Paul/Clinton plan) is still a surrender and the wrong thing to do. As the so-called "Libertarian Candidate", one would have expected Paul to understand that one of government's proper functions is to protect its people from the aggressive use of force. Paul forgets this in his pandering, moonbat mode.
