Did he ever bother to actually read a history of the events that led up to the Civil War as well as its history?
Is there any GOP’er in his district that can retire this loon.
Surely somewhere in that district there is a libertarian oriented GOP’er that can defeat him.
I would think his district is getting tired of his maniacal pronouncements. Is Rand Paul equally as nutty?

Interesting that you and many other label someone with whom they disagree as a nut, loon, or kook, etc.

Obviously you do that because you cannot discuss or debate those ideas without resorting to name calling.

The current freeper culture is to slam and label anyone who doesn’t drink the koolaid and is afraid to look at differing points of view.

I’ll bet that you actually agree with him more than you want to admit! I’ll bet you prefer lower taxes, as well as smaller and less intrusive government.

It is a pity that the meme is to marginalize him instead of work with him on areas of agreement.

But hey, guess it is more popular to mock him than look for points of agreement and work from there.

Havent’ read the thread so don’t know if anyone has replied to your question. Paul usually wins by large margins in his district. In the Mar 2, 2010 primary he had 3 opponents and he won the primary with over 80% of the vote.

The only way I see to get rid of him may come with the next redistricting. Texas will gain 3 maybe 4 seats and this will require a major revamping of the districts. It maybe feasible to realign his such that he doesn’t have the support from new voters yet keep it such that it remains GOP. We’ll see.
