Ron Paul is jeered by Freepers who don’t truly support the Constitition themselves but they will support ‘electable’ candidates who won’t support the Constitution either.

Agree 100%. Too many folks on here support someone just because they can win. Deep down, the strategy in 2008 for the Republicans is to defeat Hillary.. not elect Rudy. Real conservatives want a guy like Paul or Tancredo to win. However, the GOP at the national level is not too interested in either of them... which saddens me.

By shopping for an attractive candidate the GOP misses out on qualified candidates.

Thus, they are not really "working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America".
