"but the media simply reduced him to a freak-show-topic when they talked about him at all."

Paul did that all on his own.

“Paul did that all on his own.”

He topped fundraising for gop candidates in q4 07. His proportional coverage was completely inconsistent with this.

I am not arguing Paul’s positions here, for or against. Many were simply impossible, others dangerous, others welcome.

What I am saying is that the media didn’t even give him a platform to put his message out. They chose the messages and candidates they let present their views, and in essence chose the most unpopular gop candidate they could.
