Yes, that was a typo...rand = REAL.

Yep, I know. But that wasn't what I was pointing out.

I think that most of his constituents have no idea how he votes and only vote for him now, because they recognize his name and it has an "R" next to it.

Well, that's possible. But in this part of Texas, politics ranks up there with football, church, drinking, and (depending on when deer season starts) hunting.
Most folks I know (Ds & Rs) keep track of their congress -critters.

If they really knew his record, they wouldn't vote for him; especially of someone who was a real Conservative ran against him in a primary and laid it all out.

Maybe they know his record and approve of it?

And who is this "real Conservative" you keep talking about?

Short of Tom DeLay, the Texas GOP knows that they don't have anyone that can unseat Ron Paul in the 14th.
And if they break with Paul, they also know they run the risk of forcing the election of the first Libertarian US Congressman.

What do they get from him being in the House? NOTHING!

The 14th is conservative -- they don't want jack-squat from the government.

They also must not want the government to be in Iraq and Afghanistan then, don't want tax cuts either, and don't really
want a Representative who does anything of value.
