I could have sworn that it was common courtesy to ping someone if you talk about them in a post. So much for good manners, I guess.
Just FYI: I keep in contact with my friends and family in the military via email, snail mail and phone calls. As far as I know they don't post here on FR (although I guess it IS possible). I'll have to ask some of them about when next we talk. Your comment about not being able to point to posts is simply asinine. FR, while infomative and sometimes entertaining, isn't necessarily the be-all and end-all of communication.
That's more grassroots support than all of the other candidates, including Obama and maybe Fred Thompson. Paul's got people volunteering on their own time and dime putting the word out for him. All this while the lamestream media ignores him and most conservative blogs denigrate him.
If you could actually show some proof of grassroot support for cut and run from anyone other than cowardly democrats and Internet spammers and you might have some credibility.
I'm telling you, IT'S THERE. Go to his campaign website and peep the videos. This is not like Dean's 2004 campaign where he had a bunch of lefties supporting him and then he flamed out. Paul's got ordinary folks interested in politics again, he's got more meetup voluteers than all of the candidates combined. A real coalition, that the GOP better start paying attention to because these folks sure in the Hell ain't going to hold their noses for Giuliani or whatever RINO is nominated.
