IMHO that means he is not truly a libertarian. Just another politician. <br /><br />My main worry is that the Corporate Media will convince enough people that the Republic Party is gaining enough support that they will get enough votes to win more elections than they should this year!!Kulkurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09198195648066700925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20279539.post-80921602385873433792010-02-21T11:45:21.375-05:002010-02-21T11:45:21.375-05:00I actually like some of the things that Ron Paul s...I actually like some of the things that Ron Paul says - I watched him on a vid with Chris Matthews and a hard core Repub and he made a lot of sense. Now, if he would just lose the R after his name and declare he was a Libertarian that he is, he could appeal to independents. One thing this does prove is that the more moderate candidates (Mittens and Paul) still hold some significant sway with the Repubs. <br /><br />This is a good thing and a bad thing - good because it shows that they haven't all gone batshit crazy (i.e., supporting the Tundra Twat) and that either one of those might still appeal to independents. My vote would be for Ron Paul, but I think the Teabaggers would break off from him and split the party - which is also a good thing. You know things are not going well when even a moderate like Tim Pawlenty is advocating violence in order to get the teabaggers on his side.<br /><br />Another bad thing is that Mittens and Paul could choose a teabagger running mate for vp just to please them. This would not be good at all because a) it would not split the party and b) they (Mittens and Paul) could appeal to independents and that would be trouble for us. However, having a teabagger as veep could totally turn off the independents (which I think it would) and that would again be good for us. I don't think that Paul would go for a teabagger on his ticket (he's much too Libertarian for that), but Mittens so would. So it's a toss up for us.Lisa G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02909155560510148815noreply@blogger.com
