The neo-nazi style members of the Ron Paul 'revolution' are already on the out-and-out of the Republican party. The GOP's bigot brigade doesn't want their ideals to be known, so like Ron Paul, they take their money from time to time and pay lip service, but when the rubber meets the road, they only do just enough to keep 'em coming back, but not enough to advance the neo-nazi agenda.

If all he had was the hardest of the hardcore bigot vote, then he'd be pulling 0s in the polls. So he's gotta have more than just them.

Although, if he does pull off the coup, those supporters you mentioned would make for excellent targets with Democratic attack ads. That seems to be the flavor of the month- attack anyone even remotely associated with a candidate.

Paul has best showing yet, in Idaho

Email|Link|Comments (62) Posted by Foon Rhee, deputy national political editor May 28, 2008 11:06 AM

John McCain has the Republican nomination wrapped up, but Ron Paul isn't going anywhere.

In fact, in Tuesday's little-noticed Republican primary in Idaho, the iconoclastic Texas congressman had his best showing so far, grabbing 24 percent of the vote, nearly 30,000 votes in all.

McCain won with 70 percent, while the other 6 percent went to uncommitted.

Paul's showing came despite making only one campaign stop in the state. "Dr. Paul's grassroots supporters in Idaho and across the country are doing a tremendous job spreading our message, winning votes and laying a strong foundation for the future," campaign spokesman Jesse Benton said in a statement.

Paul's supporters have been making waves in state GOP conventions, hoping to secure a speaking role for him, plus a say on the party platform, at the national convention in September

The Democratic Party Candidate for US Senate in South Carolina is a Ron Paul Republican:

South Carolina Democrats Appear to Have Nominated a Republican for U.S. Senate
June 20th, 2008

South Carolina held its primary (for all office other than president) on June 10. The Democratic U.S. Senate primary was won by Bob Conley. Now it has been revealed that Conley was on the Horry County Republican Committee, and that he voted in the Republican presidential primary earlier in the year. News reports say he voted for Ron Paul. See this story. South Carolina doesn�t have registration by party, so it isn�t always easy to pin down anyone�s party membership.

Here's a review of Ron Paul's book from a McCain supporter (and still endorsing McCain) that originally somewhat detested Ron Paul but became a bit of a fan after reading the book:

Ron Paul, the iconclastic former Republican presidential hopeful, announced today that he will hold a rally at the Target Center in Minneapolis on Sept. 2, as the GOP holds its convention across the river in St. Paul.

His supporters hoped to get him a speaking role at the GOP convention, but that does not appear likely. So instead he is planning the counter-convention, and has made entreaties with Libertarian presidential candidate Bob Barr. Paul was the Libertarian candidate in 1988.

Paul plans "grassroots and leadership training events" on Aug. 31 and Sept. 1, in addition to the all-day Target Center event with speakers including Grover Norquist, Tucker Carlson, Gov. Gary Johnson, Barry Goldwater Jr. and Bruce Fein

Paul's campaign said there has been enough interest in the "Rally for the Republic" to move it from the smaller Williams Arena to the 18,000-seat Target Center.

"The Rally for the Republic will send a powerful, positive message to the Republican Party that there is an army of grassroots activists across the country ready to work with them if steer back to their traditions of limited government and personal liberty," spokesman Jesse Benton said in an earlier announcement.

The Texas congressman, who opposes the Iraq war and is a libertarian on economic issues, drew an avid following during the Republican primaries. He won 1.2 million votes and raised nearly $35 million. His campaign said the Campaign for Liberty, formed June 16 when he ended his presidential bid, has attracted over 71,000 members.
