Can't stop common sense.

The other main difference is that Ron Paul has no chance of winning. Huckabee does.

Common sense says to keep this dude away from the Oval Office. He may not be scarey himself, but his ideas of isolationalism today are.

He is incredibly naive to think that pulling back within our borders will stop terrorist attacks against America and our interests abroad.

...breaking out of the tinfoil-hat ghetto...

Where is that and how does one get out of it?

If the most you can say for him is that “he’s not that scary,” then that’s not much of an endorsement.

But there's something weird going on when Paul, the small-government constitutionalist, is considered the extremist in the Republican Party

When you align yourself with truthers and believe we are responsible for 9/11 then one's other positions on issues becomes irrelevant.

"Huckabee represents compassionate conservatism on steroids."


This is the last thing in the world we need after eight years of Bush. The GOP has wondered far enough into the land of big government conservatism, I say it is time to reverse course.

"It's even weirder because it's probably true: Huckabee is much closer to the mainstream. And that's what scares me about Huckabee and the mainstream alike."


It is not wierd at all, the simple fact of the matter is that the GOP has been moving in the direction of support for big government conservatism for about a decade. Sad, yes but not wierd.

I got a dollar bill today with “Google RonPaul.com” stamped on it in red. As if I wasn’t already turned off by these loonies...

Let's even say that Paul has the passionate support of the Legion of Doom, that his campaign lunchroom looks like the "Star Wars" cantina, and that his top advisors have hooves instead of feet.

LOL!!!! Damn thats funny!! :-)

EXACTLY!!! "Truthers" should not be pandered too. If it could be legally done, they should be beaten with a lead pipe. The 9/11 "Truthers" are despicable.

Ping.

That is a good article. Sounds exactly word for work like something I would write. I couldn’t agree more.

How the flip does an article about Nanny Huck turn into an anti-Ron Paul thread? It’s not like we don’t have a big slate of Republican candidates, all of whom have some flaws. But whenever the name ‘’Paul’’ is mentioned, however tangentially, it sets off a Pavlovian response in some posters, at which point no further rational discussion will occur on that particular thread.

Usually Jonah has his eye on the ball, but he’s lost it here. A guy who’ll lose the war on purpose scares me plenty.
