Maybe I just haven’t been reading enough threads, I don’t know. But it seems to me that the FR RP supporters have been somewhat silent and subdued lately.
Is it just me, or does it seem like RP’s severe mental retardation is now so obvious that some of the people around here who previously supported him are having second thoughts?
I could be wrong.
Part of it has to do with being between election cycles where he’s not campaigning. Some of it has to do with him not being “in the news” lately. And any number of them were zotted over the last election cycle, so their numbers are fewer.
But, make no mistake. They’re still around. I see names every once in a while. They’re just not that much for them to be obvious about...
I think Paul’s supporters on FR have given up the ghost. I can understand why. The air around here is getting almost too foul, even for me.
I think a lot of the FR Paulites have caught on to him—and we shouldn’t rub it in.
I’m a FR RP supporter.
Over the course of the last 2 years, some, if not many, of his supporters have recognized that the tea party is a good thing and that they should support it. Both the tea party and Ron Paul believe in limited government.
Back in 2007 and 2008 Ron Paul picked up a significant number of antiwar types. Those people are not with the tea party and do not help Ron Paul. But I’m sure they’re egging on Ron Paul to speak on foreign policy matters as much as possible.
I personally think that we should consider spending less money on military bases around the world. I personally think that the federal government should be much much smaller. No need to focus too much on those things that most Republicans don’t agree with.
I do believe that Ron Paul would try harder than anyone to make the federal government smaller.
