I go back and forth on Paul. His biggest weakness is his immigration stance. And I hate how he has that McCainian trait of getting all mavericky by attacking a conservative position or politician now and then.

But he's probably the best hope if you want somebody to actually go into the office intending to shrink the size and influence of the federal government.

Nobody else is even going to try. They might slow the growth, but but Paul might actually try slashing some programs and departments and regulations.

For me, reducing the size and influence of the federal government by 90% would be a good start.
