Huh? I didn't see Ron Paul, our great savior from ourselves, listed in any of the polls by any pollster. Strange, especially since he has such staunch support. I mean, the sky is falling and RP is the only hope.
Yep it just confirms that the message of limited, constitutional govt is a hard sell in an era where a man can call himself a conservative president and spend like a drunken sailor imitating LBJ, advocate amnesty for illegal aliens and pursue a Wilsonian foreign policy.
Despite the best efforts of Paul and his supporters the message of Jefferson and the rest of the founding fathers is often rejected by those folks who today call themselves conservative and consider Bush a soulmate. The same individuals who recoil at the thought that an Obama presidency would bring back big bad tax and spend liberalism have no problem supporting big Govt at home and abroad as long as it comes with a Bush face or, I'm sure, a Thompson face.
