I heard candidates talk about real issues. I guess it depends on the issues that are important to you.
Duncan Hunter addressed issues that are important to Republicans.
Paul deserted Republicans years ago when he left for the Libertarian Party, seems he was at home there, and only came back to use the Republicans to get elected.
Ron Paul has been a Republican congressman for the last 10 terms. He didn’t just get in the party.
Please let me know which of the candidates are calling for entire departments to be eliminated, the size and power of the federal government reduced, the IRS abolished, civil liberties restored to Americans. Even Fred Thompson hasn't talked about this in specifics and he definitely doesn't have the voting record to back it up.
Duncan Hunter addressed issues that are important to Republicans.
He has addressed border security and immigration, but then again so has Paul. Hunter has addressed China and the need for fair trade, but then again so has Paul. Get back to me when Hunter starts talking specifically about runaway entitlement programs and limiting government. As a conservative-libertarian, this is a huge issue for me, because regardless of who's President, they're going to have to address terrorism one way or the other.

All of Paul's beliefs are in line with traditional Republicanism, right down to the non-intervention foreign policy. There's no need to bring up the libertarian straw-man. Libertarians are just as much as part of the GOP as Christian and moderate/RINO Republicans are.
