[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Get real. Who do you think it was who created the Tea Party movement? Who influenced McCain to pick Sarah Palin? Who got millions of Americans talking about the Fed and limited government again? New breed of GOP candidates running as classic old-right Republicans?

It sure as Hell wasn't Grahamnesty.

The only flaw with Paul is his 18th century foreign policy views, but even then it's still better than Grahamnesty supporting endless wars and nation-building everywhere. We need to have this fight, and restore libertarian-conservatism back in the GOP.

EEE, folks here and in the GOP are never going to get it even with the facts slapping them in the face.

All of his flaws combined do not add up to the damage done by RINOs like Graham, Snowe, Specter, McCain, Jeffords, Chafee.....

It was Bush’s deviations from conservatism (I don’t consider nation-building neocons in the same category as conservatives) that alienated the public against the GOP. Positioning RINOs like those above in influencial leadership also took its toll on the party. They always blocked the will of the the people that got the party as a whole elected.

It wasn’t Ron Paul for any of those things. Ron Paul has zero, I repeat, ZERO leadership skills. The majority of conservatives along with independent Americans will not be motivated by this loon.

“The only flaw with Paul is his 18th century foreign policy views”

exactly

Reminder: CiC is the #1 role of POTUS...Ron Paul is not qualified for that.

In an October 11, 2007 interview with The Washington Post, Paul said, "There's nobody in this world that could possibly attack us today... I mean, we could defend this country with a few good submarines"
