Yeah, go out to ZeroHedge when an article about Iran or Israel or the Pali's pop up...type the following - "I stand with Israel" then sit back and watch the Muzzie-loving whackjobs come to flame your Joo-loving bankster war-mongering ass!

Anyway, even a less polarizing figure would have a hard time capturing anything run by the Ruling Class Rovian bastards we have now...still too much RC/RINO/LibRepub butts to send to the curb and time has all but run out for us...the PONR might have already been breached...

Interesting continuation of the Ron Paul phenomena -

The end game?  Paul taking over GOP at the state level in those states that have a caucus system & he has ruled out endorsing Libertarian candidate Johnson.

Interesting though, no public statement about outright refusal to run 3rd party, right?  So PaulBots are still able to work their mischief even though their guy has no shot, right?

Plenty of mischief being done now.
Rovians, RNC and state Republican committees for some.

Depends on whom you wish to be mischiefed by.

Heh.  Yeah, I think it all got personal though, somebody steps on somebody elses shoes...

I hear Ron is upset some of his followers treated Mitt's son rudely, but, once unleashed partisans of any stripe can run amok a while...

For this cycle it is all over but for the cheering and/or crying...

We've beaten Paul's shortcomings (which are many) to death but spend too little time talking about his good points.
What he is doing is what the Tea Party has been trying to do,too.

Work on the state and local level trying to unseat the power brokers.

I think I've been fair in pointing out Paul's good points.  I would like to see him as Sec Treas, but I don't know if he would view that as an opportunity or an insult.

And as for shaking trees and throwing out all the bad apples that hit the ground, I am all for that!
 
It's just that knowing who, where and why people are replaced gets lost in the vacuum...I would like to know if local parties are going to properly vet candidates or trade one pack of rubber-stampers for another, leaving the voters a different Hobsian choice to make.

Much of what is going on here in Minnie is more akin to an insurgency than a friendly merger...insurgencies are not always positive.

I guess we'll see how it all shakes out...

I appreciate Paul's successes, he and his people are illustrating on a daily
basis that the establishment is not as strong as they portray themselves.
His people whacks them with vigor and with their own rules (they are very
diligent at learning all the rules and how they work).  I wish him success
and pray his goal is a better Republican Party and not some third party play.

There are some very tough aspects in Romney's character, I hope he's tough
enough to put Paul in to head the Treasury.
