I like Ron Paul, even though I disagree with his pacifism.

We have room for Ron Paul in the GOP. No other fiscal AND social conservative has a record that is quite as principled as his. He has tremendous support from people outside the party, young folks, who might otherwise vote for a liberal. We should listen carefully to him.

I may even vote for Ron Paul.

Anyone who uses the words who may be receiving secret is a moron. Yes, a lot of Republicans do not like a LOT of what Ron Paul says, but the vitriol makes the GOP look stupid. Period. If you really think he's so wacky, *just ignore him*. Didn't your mom teach you how to deal with this sort of thing?

There should be no evoL lost between the ‘Pubbies and Paul. The sooner he is gone, the better.

If it were a big issue then why don’t the candidates make a stink about it? Big points to be scored if Paul were an anti-semite and a racist bigot, so let the other candidates run on it.

This could be one of the dumbest things ever posted on the Internet.

People who think that we blew up our own buildings on 9/11...or who hint that we might have..

Paul never said, or hinted at, either.

People who may be receiving secret funding from George Soros...

Perhaps the dumbest Internet conspiracy theory since "Bush blew up the levees." Why would George Soros give $20 million to someone with no chance of winning the nomination or evening spoiling for a candidate, much less do it with absolutely no one noticing? Mr. Cook should ask Hillary if Thorazine is covered by her health care plan.

People who have become the darling of, and the recipient of support from, America's neo-Nazis and white supremacists---and who refuse to openly repudiate that support---are not Republicans.

Those same folks also endorsed Reagan, and like Reagan Paul openly repudiated them. But "looking things up" and finding out "facts" have never been a biggie among the anti-Ron Paul nuts.

So some guy, who no one's ever heard of, has access to a website no one's ever heard of, posts a whining, crying, sniveling rant that's neither researched or rooted in any semblance of reality...and we're supposed to care?

For all their blather of Ron Paul being "angry," "irrational" and a "conspiracy nut," the anti-Ron Paul fanatics seem to have turned it into performace art.

I can say with pretty good certainty that I don’t like much about Ron Paul

nor the Modern Conservative folks who wrote this hit piece either

modern conservative is a contradiction...or should be

Ron Paul is real. He’s not in on it but others in other conservative forums have recently been banned as they were open border, country-club republicans for open borders masking themselves as Ron Paul supporters so they can take away votes from the Tancredos and Duncan Hunters of Election 2008 resulting in the McCains of our country ending up with a better chance to win.

Ron Paul is not in on this and neither are the many of his supporters but as one can see he does not have as many supporters as it appears. Many of the internet Ron Paul “supporters” are actually McCain voters. Sadly they are using Ron Paul to help their own candidate win. Luckily many conservative forums have caught on to this little trick.

The Republican Party is a big tent movement. We don't apply nearly the same strictness when it comes to tests of ideological purity as the Democrats do

Oh, please. What strict standards of ideological purity would have Zell Miller and Dennis Kucinich in the same party at the same time?

It's a good idea to draw sharp contrasts between the parties, but let's be honest about it. Play it straight.

I agree. Any person or candidate who wants government out of their life should ditch the Republicans.

You sound like you think being a Republican is a good thing. It used to be, but the brand is losing market share...

He’s a David Duke repeat.
