Ron Paul, the REAL anti-war candidate! Anti-war people will ask about Ron Paul and be introduced to him on that day. Don't be rude, just gently introduce people to the peace candidate. Moveon.org is well cordinated, so if enough of our people show up at their rallies, we might be able to convert a huge number of people.

Interesting. I seriously doubt that Ron Paul is catering to the whacko base of the organization, especially the ultra hard core lefties that represents the driving force of the group. But I'll bet there are a lkot of folks who are totally against the war but could be moderate or even conservative on other issues. I think it's smart. Nobody loses except the RATS. Any folks attending the rally that can be shown another option aside from the Deamoncrats, might cause a schism to appear in the solidarity. They might even shake that solidarity so much that votes start to peel off. In trying to keep the sheep inside the fold, the base may reveal their true extremeism to the moderate anti-war citizens and thus really cut their own throats in the vote department. The more I think of it, the more convinced I become that this goes beyond interesting. It's bloody well brilliant!

The guy who's organizing this FReeping of a MoveOn event by RP supporters joined up here at FR last night. He posted a number of times here and I expect he'll be back later today. His comments remind me of a lot of our younger RP supporters.

I'm looking forward to Karsten's personal account of his event and the photos of the MoveOns.
