Headline from South Carolina: Ron Paul finishes dead last!

The reigning Prince of Niceness, Newt Gingrich, has scored a righteous victory in South Carolina's primary election. It is this observer's opinion that Newt would do well with southern conservatives. The upcoming Florida contest might be an aberration since so many Florida voters are...

Ron Paul is hardly Dr. Albert Schweitzer. Many physicians opt out of government reimbursement. Endless paperwork for very little remuneration. From a tax perspective, writing off such accounts as a loss makes sense. Anyone prepared to concede Ron Paul just might be a weaselly rascal?

Who is Jesse Benton? Ron Paul's grandson-in-law? Is young Jesse a paid staffer? Doing the granddaughter a favor? Nepotism? Does Ron Paul draw a full Congressional salary while saying he would refuse a full Presidential salary?

What to do about it? Send Ron Paul out of the country on a humanitarian mission; and while he is gone, have a brokered convention which produces a conservative nominee. Donald Rumsfeld 2012!!!!!

Those who believe Ron Paul's motives are above reproach are free to do so. The bigger news tonight is Romney's win in New Hampshire. If Romney wins either South Carolina and/or Florida in the next few weeks, it will become exceedingly difficult to deny him the GOP nomination. Putting a...

Could be political posturing designed to ingratiate himself with voters. There's a lot of speculation Ron Paul wants to pass the baton to son, Rand, when this election cycle is over. If that's the case, Paul the Elder has a lot of bridge-building ahead. Ron Paul's legacy within the Republican...

Barack Obama has the professional credentials of a legal scholar. Barack Obama has a full understanding of our Constitution but little respect for it. Much of Obama's legislative initiatives, particularly, Obamacare, are widely considered to be extraconstitutional and will soon be under review...

It is understood Ron Paul supporters may not like Mitt Romney or Rick Santorum. However, to state they do not understand the US Constitution is plain wrong. Both were legal scholars. Romney earned his law degree from Harvard. Santorum earned his law degree from Dickinson School of Law...

Ron Paul cares about Ron Paul. In his long congressional career, he has had nearly zero effect on matters of substance. Pretty much devoid of leadership capabilities, where are his legislative accomplishments? Ron Paul is simply another self-promoting huckster who found his niche pimping...

I usually don't stray up here to the Dear Abby section of EO; however, "van stuff" caught my eye. Now, I am having difficulty assembling the fact pattern of MXZ's Walmart incident. I suspect someone is having a good laugh at our expense. There's an odd familiarity, though.

There is no direct evidence to suggest Ron Paul harbors racist viewpoints. The real problem arising from the newsletters is a public perception fiasco. The newsletters' controversy will dog Ron Paul until this election cycle is over. To the benefit of some, it takes Paul off message and...

Did Ron Paul walkaway in the middle of an interview on CNN today? Gloria Borger was asking about those pesky newsletters and Paul became aggravated. Newser | Headline News Summaries, World News, and Breaking News

"Battered baby. Tastes like chicken." I still think that's funny. I would caution everyone not to invest their emotions too heavily in any politician. Even the ones we revere. These politicians are probably not as bad as we think nor as good as we think. They are a work in progress...

Of course it's a joke. A political joke. Ron Paul lends himself very easily to satire. To suggest trolling is riduclous. Ron Paul supporters need to get over themselves. Every candidate gets lampooned. What to do? Indeed. Are we going to shut down political satire? Or just Ron Paul satire?

There's a new "Missing Elderly" alert in Texas. This elderly man is dangerous. Do not be fooled by his affable manner. Talks a good game. Claims to be a Republican. Been pulling this con for years.

I would agree there is a fanaticism and zealotry among ardent Ron Paul supporters which many find unsettling. Paul's following have all the intensity and harshness of a Sam Kinison scream. Ron Paul's admirers would fare better by toning down the anger a notch or two. This candidate and his...

If Ron Paul wins in Iowa, which looks likely right now, the Republican machine will find a way to stop him. The Republican establishment, along with Fox News, is totally in the tank for Mitt Romney. By any means necessary, Ron Paul will be made unacceptable to voters. The machine will have...

N. Korea's Communist dictator is reported dead. It will be interesting to see how this impoverished nation transitions to new leadership. Watching a rogue nuclear regime can be very disconcerting.

I don't understand why folks work themselves into a lather over Ron Paul. He has no chance of winning the GOP nomination; indeed, he is very likely to bolt from the GOP when his political fantasy meets reality. Ron Paul has enthusiastic support from the college-aged crowd. Young people...
