Ron Paul is fighting for his political life down in Texas-14. Having failed to gain any traction in his Presidential bid except among a lose cadre of fringe anti-war allegedly libertarian voters, he has had to suspend his campaign two days after appearing at CPAC.
Ron Paul is racing back to his district to battle back against Chris Peden, the Mayor Pro Temp of Friendswood, Texas.
You know, having spent the past year bashing Jews, Republicans, the military, and the United States, it's great to see Ron Paul forced to flee the field.
I think Chris Peden might could use some money to keep up the fight against the anti-war movement's favorite Martian.

Ron Paul should either seek reecltion or run for President.
Yup. Ron Paul is doing a Dennis Kucinich
So he’s suspended his presidential campaign to run for his House seat? Is there another source besides this blog to confirm this?
“So hes suspended his presidential campaign to run for his House seat?”
I haven’t seen any evidence of that yet.
It would be payback if an upstart real Pub in that district beat Paul after he has dissed the military, dissed Pubs, Bush, every other Pub pol. Sorry, but this dinosaur is not worth saving. He would be better going to a liberal university and try to actually teach the Constitution to moronic leftists and that might actually make up for his wasted time in discombobulating the primaries.
Regardless of what one may think of him, Ron Paul can legally run for both Congress and President at the same time, since it is permitted under Texas law, I have been told. I hope he does drop out of the presidential race ASAP and concentrates on retaining his congressional seat.
BTW, is Chris Peden a Republican or ‘Rat?
And could you explain the comment about “bashing Jews”? (I know it may not be yours, since it came from a blog.)
Chris Peden is a Republican.
And there is a quote from Ron Paul in this blog site:

Just like I think McCain should give up his senate seat to run for president.
