“Paul doesn’t agree 100% with W on Iraq. Therefore he is a traitor who wants OBL to win. Or something like that.”

Well, he’s certainly an idiot.

Judge a politician by his followers. McCain’s “moderate” followers were really Democrats that just wanted to tank W’s candicacy in 2000. Paul’s include a huge number of nutroots that think the CIA and the Mossad flew remote control planes into the World Trade Center. By their fruits (and fruitcakes) ye shall know them.

I understand that argument, but, what does it say about the other candidates and supporters that Paul is the only one who actually believes in a smaller government?

Is it only nutjobs who now believe that? Or is the GOP so screwed up that only a nutjob will take that position?

A huge number... what do you base this on?

I personally know 350 + Ron Paul supporters. Of them, only 3 or 4 are “truthers”. For a political campaign, these are pretty good numbers. Have you ever been involved in a political campaign or political movement before? No slam or attack meant by that, I’m honestly curious.
