If Paul were smart, not exactly an attribute I've seen him demonstrate of late, he'd worry more about his next Congressional run. I find it hard to believe his district will exactly embrace his cut and run attitude. Of course he can always change parties again and just run as another cut and run Democrat.
How much is our Iraq adventure costing us? 4-5 billion a month? It's a lot of cash, just don't know the amount. Whatever it is, it's a lot of 'opportunity' going out the window, too.
He pulled 60.2% of the vote in his district during a bad year for Republicans.. Considering that mainstream Republicans don't support him with finances and he doesn't bring back any "pork" money, i'd say he's pretty secure as long as he wants to serve.
Don't let it spoil your fantasy life though. LOL
