I could almost take the nuttiness. But I'm starting to see a little senility and hard of hearing at times. People might not notice it but he acts like my long passed on Grandfather that leans forward and puts his hand up to his ear to try and hear, and as with my Grandfather, to give himself more time to figure out what people were talking about. I don't know if you can see him doing this in any of the debate clips but I've watched all of the debates and I know he did it more in the first, less later on (probably advised not to do it.) I need a President with clear hearing and thinking on his toes.

Sec of Def: “Sir, we're being attacked.”

Ron Paul: “ No, I don't want a Big Mac”.

Just like Gramps.

I'm starting to see a little senility and hard of hearing at times.

I haven't watched any of the debates on television, but I have listened to them on radio. I kind of prefer doing it that way, so that I'm not distracted by camera work, lighting, strange looks, split screens, etc.

I feel like straight audio is more honest, and that it's harder to fool the ear.

Anyway, the way Ron Paul sounded in the last debate was positively geriatric. He also sounded high strung and emotionally tweaked. Compared to the other candidates, he came off sounding like an old kook off the street, and that's not any sort of prejudice on my part talking. He really didn't sound like a presidential candidate.
