What scares me is the chance that the irrelevant Ron Paul will be the Ross Perot of 2008.
I doubt it. He’s already said he wouldn’t run as a third party candidate, and even if he did he would steal just as many, if not more, votes from the dims.

Paul has said he won’t run independent or third party. It doesn’t matter. If Giuliani gets the nod, none of the Paul supporters will even show up to vote. They don’t want another big government liberal. It will be like 2006 all over again. Wasn’t that fun?
Maybe someone in the big tent of the GOP should ask why Ron Paul’s ideas are so popular and why he has so much support. Perhaps some opportunistic strategist can determine what can be done to woo his supporters. If not, the GOP will be losing a chunk of its base.

No, that role will be played by Michael Bloomberg. Ron Paul has stated that he will not run again as a third-party candidate.
I think Mona Charen may be a Clinton supporter. Who gains from anger and disunity in the Republican ranks?
No chance. Kermit the Frog's more likely to be a major candidate.
