I’m a supporter of Ron Paul, just not a fan of his isolationist policies.
We need the middle to win and Ron Paul won’t get the middle. Dems will be able to exploit most of his positions and portray him as a wacko to the middle voter. A Ron Paul/Dem match up would guarantee a Democrat president.
I’d rather not take that chance with the upcoming election.
Your are correct about the middle. Too many people are dependent on the nanny state.
Any “love” Libs show RP now is only because of his “war” ideas.
Are you kdding me? Paul has the middle locked up. He has all the swing, independents, small L libertarians, and folks who hate politics singing his tune. How will the Dims portray him as an anti-war wacko when the Dims themselves advocate withdrawal too, and with no specifics or timetables to boot! Give Paul credit for calling for an immediate withdrawal. I don't agree with Paul on this but at least he didn't BS the people about it. A Paul nomination could quite possibly sweep all 50 states.
He has no "isolationist" policies. The correct term is "non-interventionist", and that's a very different creature.
