The Rockefeller/eastern establisment wing is definitly pushing their candidates and attempting to marginlize anyone associated with the other wing of the party. This is actually Ron Paul's election to lose as GW has run the party into the ground. The way I see it Guiliani, Thompson and Romney will split the Rockefeller voters, Huckebee will garner the loins share of the Christian fundy vote and the small goverment libertarian leaning voters will be in Pauls corner. Iowa will go to Huckebee and New Hampshire to Paul. After that who knows. But it will be fun to watch.

He actually makes a lot of sense and The Stiletto would have voted for him - if 9/11 had never happened. There has to be a middle course between the neocons wanting to intervene anywhere and everywhere in the world and Paul's isolationism. And BTW, The Stiletto will be going to a Ron Paul shindig this week as she knows at least 10 people who support him (paradoxically, with Rudy as their second choice should Paul drop out at some point).

Our country needs to stop acting like a paranoid fearful nation, 9/11 didn't change anything, except our courage, enemies will always exist, but we can't police the world.

Our foreign policy costs $1 trillion per year at this point in time. Of course such a massive drain on our economy will have an impact on everything else we try to spend money on. It's simple economics, folks! As to the "boos"... are you honestly telling me it isn't ironic that out of all of the debates held to date, this is the only one where Ron Paul (who has been consistent in his answers) was booed like this? He was applauded strongly with the very same types of answers in every other debate (incuding the others run by FOX News). Just because you have a personal vendetta against the guy's platform doesn't mean you need to ignore the obvious. "but that was then, and this is post-9/11" Maybe you should say "but that was then, and this is post-Constitution" instead. That's clearly the direction you are promoting. It is a victory for our enemies when we allow their actions to define the way we run our country. “and in question after question he implicitly or explicitly blamed the war for just about every domestic and foreign policy problem this country faces”

Since the very first question was about the war, the bit about crowd not putting up with his position anymore is simply false. Since the Romney campaigned bragged about buying a lot of tickets, I suspect the audience was packed with candidate supporters and the war was clearly a contrasting issue. For that reason I'm not concerned about the boo. Even so, I would stand with Ron Paul and take the boo if need be. He spoke the truth. Only Ron Paul will defend this country. Others want to play empire games. Only Ron Paul will stay focused on getting those who hijack planes and destroy buildings. Others want to play empire games or wipe out Islam. Only Ron Paul pays attention to the dollar and the cost of government spending. Others will drive the country into ruin.
