By now, readers will know who I favor in the Democratic race. Here's my most considered case. But what of the GOP? For me, it comes down to two men, Ron Paul and John McCain. That may sound strange, because in many ways they are polar opposites: the champion of the surge and the non-interventionist against the Iraq war; the occasional meddling boss of Washington and the live-and-let-live libertarian from Texas. But picking a candidate is always a mix of policy and character, of pragmatism and principle. And what these two mavericks share, to my mind, is a modicum of integrity.

    Some trolls die hard, don’t they? Perhaps they need to get paved by the kitties. There should be enough litter to do a really good job!

    I guess you are as fake as your so called conversion from Rudy to Paul in the past several days.Of his entire post, this is the line that was the most confusing: "Support Freedom...Support the Troops...Support Ron Paul!!!
Support for Ron Paul is definitely NOT support for our Troops and their mission.

    First of all, I want to thank you for your service in the Army.
Second of all, supporting a candidate who supports defeat in the War on Terror is a disgrace. What is Ron Paul’s solutions to winning? Wave the white flag and pull out? That is suicide.
Ron Paul wants government not to intervene so much that he is willing to promote anarchy to accomplish that goal.
If you support Freedom and the troops, you would not support Ron Paul.

    The Ron Paul campaign is employing the "sideshow tent" strategy: every marginal coven of freaks, I'm so going to steal that!
