| Just a few pages ago you were singing the praises of Paul's Libertarian inclinations. Why are you backing away from his Libertarian ties now? I think it's worthwhile that Ron Paul becomes the voice of the Libertarian agenda, if only to bring their platform into mainstream consciousness for this generation. Don't you?
Wait, do you think whether or not he's seen as a Libertarian will have a significant impact on his performance in the GOP primaries? Republicans are ideologically savvy, and they know what they want to see in their candidates: sincerity, consistency and experience and Paul has more of those three than any other candidate. I don't think he'll win the primary, far from it, but I don't think his libertarian convictions could bear any blame for his loss. |
