I don’t think bashing Ron Paul does anyone any good.
This is the GOP primary and myself personally I like his domestic views quite a bit.
His foreign policy views are disastrous though.
This notion that anyone outside the mainstream GOP is an anti-semite racist or evil is senseless. I would like to see political correctness purged from the GOP. Bush and his advisors have used it well enough already....to ill effect.
What is much more important right now is to stop social liberals from gaining control of the mess that Bush has created in the GOP.
That is the fight folks. Paul is almost irrelevant though if everything falls apart he will have a table at the ashes to be sure like all the other pieces.
I am a Tancredo man but being a realist I hope my homeboy Fred can make me feel better that he is going to be a real conservative and clean up the crap left by the ruling GOP now (yes...there are exceptions like Sessions etc)
