Ron Paul Quietly Converting GOP Believers
By John Fout TheStreet.com Political Correspondent 8/9/2007 12:20 PM EDT
Why haven't conservatives leaders embraced their own ideals and come out to support Ron Paul in public?
I pondered this issue in an article in June. I saw Paul as the one second-tier candidate who might have a chance of a breakout from the pack. It turns out I might have got it right. He has remained the most popular GOP candidate on the Internet. This genuine outpouring of support is rivaled only by that for Barack Obama.

Looks like it is more like 55% today agree with him. Next week it will be even less.
Clinton and company are going to look like fools when we win this war.
busy supporting conservatives that are actually Republicans?
Or better yet, supporting Republicans who are actually conservatives!
Fixed that headline
And you neos work very hard to keep it that way.
I think you're afraid of something; otherwise, why all the effort?
You love that age thing. You just love it.
Next time you're hanging out with David Duke at a Paul rally, tell him about all the brilliantly witty repartee you engaged in on FR threads.
I'm sure he'll be as pleased as you are.
You Paulestinians are more delusional than the left wing liberals, in fact you are more delusional than the Arabs.Every Ron Paul thread as at least one great post. This is the post for this thread.
jveritas, you are the man!
Paulestinians. I love it. I'm using it from now on.
More delusional than Arabs. Man, you got that right. The Arabs think that all their problems are the Jews. The Paulestinians think that all our problems with Arabs are our "failed foreign policy". Both mighty delusions. But I think you have to give first place to the Paulestinians.
Hell...120% of people agree with paul...
*picked a hell of a week to quit sniffing glue*
Paul's campaign recently scheduled several last-minute events in South Carolina with a few days notice. They drew 450 people at one and over 1,000 at another. Front-runner Rudy Giuliani would love to draw those kinds of crowds.
Question for the Paulistas: How exactly does a “congressional authorisation for the war” NOT count as a “declaration of war”, if the process of congressional deliberation and the end result are both the same?
Not only that, the comparison is spurious. B. Hussein Obama has real support within the Democrat party. He has raised tens of millions of dollars.
On the other hand, Paul is last in the polls, has no real support from Republicans and has raised only a fraction of what Obama has and, for that matter, what Rudy and Romney have raised.
and your afraid of people that still ride camels
To be fair, Paulestinian CenTexConfederate was reviving the old "Israelis were behind 9/11" conspiracy theory on a thread yesterday - so they might be only equally as delusional as "the Arab street."
Come have a beer, we’ll fire up some good Fred Thompson flicks on the 52” Samsung and forget about it for awhile...
the majority of america agree with ron paul on states rights taxes and a bunch of other issues too...
Ghouliani cut and ran from Iowa.
“Why haven’t conservatives leaders embraced their own ideals and come out to support Ron Paul in public?”
Um... Because he’s nuts.
What do I win?
They want to leave because they are tired of hearing about it.
He never wanted to go because it might up set the Muslims more...
And we're all thrilled to have you back.
