He’s totally nuts.
I don’t LIKE him because he is a NEO CON.
Good riddance, Ron Paul.
Paul has more conservative in his little finger than McCain has on his entire hand.
If it weren’t for his idiotic take on isolationism, and his refusal to reject the nutcase racists that infected his publications team at one point, then he’d be viable.
But, if one simply takes 20 conservative issues and compares Paul and McCain, Paul would rate a 19 and McCain would be lucky to get to 9.
McCain still is not my choice UNLESS he picks a known, viable, non-Cino, conservative running mate.
I’m actually going to (gasp!) stand up for Paul on this one—if he doesn’t agree with McCain’s stands on issues, there’s no real reason for him to make the symbolic move of endorsing him.
And honestly, considering the makeup of the odd coalition of supporters that Paul put together during his run, I’d say more of them will be voting for Ralph Nader than would vote for John McCain anyway.

And the Party's establishment's side of that bargain would be...?
Is this phrase trying to imply that McCain needs Ron Paul to win in November?
I don't know whether McCain will win or not (I suspect he will), but I know the Ron Paul endorsement will carry him about as far towards victory as the endorsements of a barber named Gus in Des Moines and bus driver named Suzie in Laredo.
Paul has his anti-war base of moonbats, but they are not voting for McCain. Ever.
It couldn’t be because he acts as if he is a few bricks shy of having a full load could it?
He’s right. I will oppose him, and anyone who supported his just. Until he gets his head screwed on straight about the war, I want nothing to do with him.
RP trashes the Republican Party every chance he has then whines they don’t reach out to him........what a fruit cake.
Because he’s a big dork.
Nobody’s going to “work with him” as long as he keeps telling people that being a republic doesn’t mean “electing Republicans”.
Please deposit your soul in the waste receptacle to your left.
I used to kinda like the guy, that was before I started learning just who he really was and what he advocates. Now I can hardly stand to hear or look at him. I know he claims to be a Libertarian but if he is an example of that party then please, go away and don’t bother me! We don’t need anymore wacko politicians.
Ron Paul at a glance
Ron Paul’s influence is still important. He was the only candidate who talked about abolishing entire federal agencies because there is no basis for them in the constitution...just as republicans used to profess during the 90’s. Bush was more liberal than even Bob Dole, who called for the elimination of 4 depts.
