Do you even realize the irony of that statement? That's exactly the same thing the Bushbots tried to use to scare people into voting straight GOP. Invoking the "real world" is funny as well, given that RP is lucky to get more than a few percentage points in any GOP poll. The blogosphere is the only place that he seems popular, which is still a very small fragment of the voting populace.
Not ironic at all. I don’t expect Ron Paul to win. I do think, however, he has the best chance to advance the ideas of liberty in public discourse, just like the Socialist party did so 100 years ago with its ideas. Again, I’m all ears if you have an altnerative who can do the same or better. Who is she/he?
