“In the past few months, Ron Paul has dramatically raised the profile of libertarianism inside the Republican Party”
Great! THIS is why I have supported Ron Paul. Not because he would be a good president, but because the GOP has got their collective head up their a$$ and has so for years. They need to be pushed into being more conservative. The term Republican has become a bad word lately. Just listen to the talk hosts.
Ron Paul is wrong on several items. His idealism is to be admired, although I would be more pragmatic. I’d take Ron Paul over RINOs like Trent Lott any day. He drives me crazy. Good riddance, Trent.
The problem is that DC will kill most anybody. Freshmen come in and are idealistic, then after a few years they start accepting the good old boy deal and begin voting for pork like everybody else.
The GOP has drifted from principles (Ron Reagan) to Finger in the Air Democrats. I’m glad Ron Paul has had an effect on the campaign and love many of his libertarian principles. Our government will survive only if it adopts a few. Tough economic times are coming and a burgeoning government under Hillary Clinton and a democrat Congress will be hard to reverse. Government bankruptcy will get us before AQ.
Come November I will be voting for ABH - Anybody But Hillary.

where he is wrong, he is deadly wrong. I couldn’t care less about his shrimp pork. He gives comfort to our enemies.
