Fred Thompson said tonight, on Hannity, speaking of Paul making a possible run as an Independent, that he has a lot of Democrat supporters. Do you know that to be true or not?

Not for sure, however it does make sense, Paul is not a conservative, so liberals would support him.

Some say he does have some democrat’s support. I know Ronald Reagan had a lot of democrats support him.

"..he has a lot of Democrat supporters."

I shall now point out how misguided and short sighted that line of thinking is:

The young people are exploring their own position in the political world, sometimes voting for dems, sometimes for pubbies. Designer remembers when he first registered to vote, he signed up under the dem column, because that is what his parents were. After listening to the dem candidate, he chose to vote for the republican instead.

Now some of you republicans would like to vilify every young person simply because they might have been dems at one time, and you are cutting off your nose to spite your face when you verbally toss the new voters to the curb. A forward-thinking republican would welcome those new voters, and in particular because they are young, meaning that they would be republicans for a long time to come.

You go right ahead and throw them out. Me, I'm keeping them, and nurturing them, and educating them, and my state republican party thanks me for it.
