They probably have a few problems.
1. they think that economics mean everything. He would be good for the economy probably.
2. They don’t understand the danger of his foreign policy.
3. Like any other cult Paulbots are highly motivated. They get out there and do whatever they have to do to get the numbers of the few to look like it is a vast many. So they got the votes - but in a real election Paul would show his true colors in debates. He would make Obama look almost .. desirable or even sane.
In the 2008 Texas Presidential Primary, Paul got less than 6% of the votes statewide.
He got only 9% in his home district.
Victoria knows him as well as anybody. And they don't think their Congressman would make much of a President.
And, of course, they're right.
