Paul has always gotten the shaft when it comes to the media, and Jon had nailed it.
Some of the stuff he says I like and sensible, while other stuff is kooky. What I don't understand is how the last bit has translated into him not being a "serious" candidate, meanwhile Bachmann is completely out of her mind and full of weird ideas yet she is treated as a serious frontrunner.... an Perry, running around talking about succession and assassination of the Fed Chairman. Paul just wants to go back to the gold std (there are good reasons why this is a bad idea), but is not talking about killing anyone.
Personally I'm disappointed in the whole lot. The GOP candidates are quite a sight to behold. Obama...I don't know WTF he is doing. At this point he reminds me of Technical Corporal Upham from Saving Private Ryan, esp the scene at the end where he just freezes up and sits there while he mates are being stabbed to death by the German. You stand stand there watching, waiting for the bastard to move and he just
doesn't. He's a nice guy, means well, but just can't seem to get it done when the time counts.
IDK.. Maybe Donovan McNabb is a better analogy...
Either way, not too happy with him, but I like all his replacements even less at this point.
