Ron Paul's followers are creepier than Ron Paul himself.

Your right way creepier

Your right way creepier

But not as creepy as Obongo's followers.

This doesnt surprise me one bit.

Close to half of the R. Paul supporters said they will NEVER vote for a GOP candidate.

I wonder what Chaim might say about Rand Paul supporting Romney over his own father.

I can guess a few things:

1. Rand Paul came out supporting Romney after his father suspended his campaign
2. Rand Paul is clever unlike his own father and so wants to look more legitimate to the "mainstream" GOP by not publically agreeing with his father's cooky ideals.  And since he is new to the government, he doesn't want to jeopardize his position.

...or perhaps Rand Paul isn't as cooky as his father is a true conservative republican.

Rand Paul said several things that made me think he wasn't a wacko Muslim lover.

I understand him feeling like he needs to say certain things to get approval from his dad....   I have the same instincts at times for my own father.  But when he was discussing foreign policy, he really did not sound like a Muslim loving wacko.   

That doesnt mean we shouldnt be skeptical.

Have mercy  When are some of us here going to learn to read between the lines  As crazy as Ron Paul seems at times he does not want another four years of a shvartza Presidency... Unable to support Romney out in the open without turning off many of his supporters he has his son do some of his bidding as he takes a lower profile by suspending his campaign...  Paul and his son are very much on the same page despite what many believe... Rand seems to take a more main stream RNC approach on issues however listen closely  to what he says and you will see he is just a younger image of his father.

Great analysis. I think you're right. Maybe Ron Paul is actually afraid of his fanatical followers?

Man I feel real bad for Rand Paul.  He is much more Conservative than his father and his foreign policy is not ultra fatalistic.  Ron Paul is an anti-semite who would allow the Muslim nations to progress into nuclear weapons...Oh just leave them alone huh and quit sticking our noses in their business.     Actually Rand Paul showed strength by standing up for Mit Romney, he knew his father's foreign policy and stand on legalizing hard drugs was never going to make it with Conservatives!

[Rubystars]

Debbie I knew Ron Paul was for pot legalization but when did he want to legalize hard drugs?

Rand and Ron want Rand to be VP or at the very least gain a prominent position in the cabinet so Rand can run for President in the future. They will say or do anything to attain this goal. Do not trust either one of them.
