I was just reading up on ole R.P. AlladinSane sent me a link to a story, well it was more about how much farther to the right Mike Huckabee is than W. but it did have this funny opening bit:
Jonah Goldberg wrote:
As the hopeless but energetic presidential campaign of Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) builds momentum in name recognition, fundraising and cross-ideology appeal, media conservatives are beginning to attack Paul in earnest. Republican consultant David Hill condemns the candidate's "increasingly leftish" positions. Syndicated columnist Mona Charen calls Paul "too cozy with kooks and conspiracy theorists." Film critic and talk radio host Michael Medved looks over Paul's supporters and finds "an imposing collection of neo-Nazis, white Supremacists, Holocaust deniers, 9/11 'truthers' and other paranoid and discredited conspiracists."
For the most part, these allegations strike me as overblown and unfair. But, for argument's sake, let's say they're not. Let's even say that Paul has the passionate support of the Legion of Doom, that his campaign lunchroom looks like the "Star Wars" cantina, and that many of his top advisors actually have hooves.

Ha! Fuck FAUXNews. He is indeed conservative. He is pro-life, and decent, and I am tripping that I agree with nearly EVERY issue he champions.
So he has a snowflake's chance in hell of winning. If he did, it would mean a lot of good things for our country.

The autopsy revealed that Price had been stabbed at least 37 times, in both the front and back of his body. Many of the wounds were deep and extended into vital organs. After Price was killed, Knight skinned him and hung his skin from a meat hook on the architrave of a door in their living room. She then decapitated him and placed the head in a pot on the stove, baked flesh from his buttocks, and prepared vegetables and gravy to serve as a meal to his children, which was accompanied by vindictive notes from Knight. Police found the meal before the children arrived home.
Hawt.

I'm not sure it would though. The guy, Libertarian through and through..yes, seems to hold to the party line too rigidly for any logic to seep in.
He favors an immediate withdrawal which would completely destroy the fucking world much less the Middle East. Even if we went to war for the wrong reasons, and I still think we did the correct thing with too small a force, I would much rather fight these bastards over there than here.
His past medical profession leads him to the untenable position that the government has a say over a womans body WRT to abortion.
On immigration I am glad he is down on amnesty and all the trappings of that but I am not yet convinced he would do the first and most important thing, build a huge fucking wall.
Finally, the gold standard ideas he has have merit but I have yet to see anyone explain how the fact that we currently have nearly four times as much paper money in circulation as gold in reserve at current market value would be handled in a switch over.
And he does attract the nutcases which, fundraising milestones be damned, will always kill your chances.

Eh, that would simply make him more appealing a candidate as far as I'm concerned.

Everyone here knows I normally find politics boring as hell. Please look at this, and consider supporting Ron Paul in '08. I find his ideas exciting and revolutionary.

That's about as relevant as my taste in toilet paper (tripleply Charmin if you must know, it soothes the irritation of permenant beer shits)
Regardless - he'd get my vote if he made to General Election, however as a declared independent I have no impact on the outcome before then.
And besides, Bloomberg is gonna smoke everyone.
