Long before the tea party movement grabbed half a dozen Senate seats, before its early proponents ever even dreamed of wearing Colonial-era garb in public, there was longtime Texas Republican Ron Paul, the one guy in Congress trying to abolish the Federal Reserve and shrink the government into near nonexistence. Paul won a devoted-bordering-on-cultish following during his 2008 presidential run, one which, obviously, didn't work out. But now Paul is telling the Times that "it’s at least 50-50" that he'll try again in 2012, and this time, with the movement built largely on his libertarian philosophy now a real force in American politics and expected to be decisive in the Republican primaries.

Most Conservatives are not going to go for Dr. Paul’s isolationist views on foreign policy.

I will say that he is right about a whole lot more than he is wrong though.

Yeah, he could possibly split the vote & let Romney in. Which would be dumb as crap of him.

"Could Ron Paul Take Down Sarah Palin?"

This is a serious question? Or, a wishful thought?

Palin has been attacked thoroughly. To the point of Assange at wikileaks even posting her private emails (he was an msm darling then). She is in control of her destiny IMO.

Depends on what Ron Paul uses... certainly not with charisma.

Even with pistols at ten paces, I think Palin would win so the short answer is “no”.

Ron Paul is right one maybe one point.
He’s ‘WAY wrong on about 50 others.

I find it hard to believe he got elected to any higher office
than operator of the ring-toss concession at a local carnival.
