The question was on who you thought did best in the debate, not on who you think would make the best President. Ron Paul supporters seem to have a time distinguishing between the two (I think Romney's debate performance was the best but Tommy Thompson would be a far better president)

Does the Ron Paul fan base honestly believe he "won" the debate with remarks like this:

===================================================

MR. MATTHEWS: Do you think Scooter Libby should be pardoned? Dr. Paul, do you want to pardon him?

REP. PAUL: No, he doesn't need a pardon. But he doesn't need it because he was instrumental in the misinformation that led the Congress and the people to support a war that we didn't need to be in.

==============================================

So the candidate who lectures everyone else on what's "Constitutional" thinks Scooter Libby should stay locked up, not because Libby is gulity of a crime, but because Libby's views on Iraq is different than Paul's. Real "consitutionalist" position there. So much for Mr. Paul's being the candidate of "liberty" and "freedom" in America.

No, Ron Paul does not believe that Scooter Libby should be granted an extra-ordinary Pardon. Respecting the Constitution, he believes in letting the Courts do their Job.

What's wrong with the Constitution?
