Questions Wolf will ask, no matter what anyone Tweets him: Question 1 - Why have you not given up yet? Question 2 - So, have you taken full responsibility for the newsletters? Question 3 - I meant to ask you before, are you going to endorse Mitt Romney? Question 4 - If you get your own...

Yeah, it's pandering to me. But it may not be pandering to Rand. In fact, it probably isn't because it seems he has more common ground with those folks than I am comfortable with. He has shown a propensity to fellow travel with the fake religionist crowd. His co-mailings with Dudley Brown, the...

And that's the real point. Saying otherwise is merely pandering to the "Faith and Freedom" coalition types. And frankly, they're interested in faith, but have no interest in freedom. And pandering to them is sickening.

Nicely put.

Wow. Just not going to happen.

1964 and 1976 should be very instructive. Elections were lost, but a stronger party was built from the ashes. And all the tactics that are being espoused for Paulers were actually put into practice, or at least attempted to, for the Goldwaterites and Reaganites. The same people who criticize us...

I guess there really isn't a "Romney" wing of the party. That died with Nelson Rockefeller atop his mistress, I suppose. The sooner the "christian coalition" types leave the party the better. Let them have the Constitution (misnamed) Party.

I'm curious to know how exactly the Romney campaign took the high road, since presumably, all this violence was perpetrated in order to guarantee Romney a smooth, meaningless convention.

And I do agree that our goal should be to do away with the two parties. They are a sham and a disgrace. I just don't know how to do it. A third party in this country is not going to fly. It's too difficult to run campaigns with the ridiculous ballot access laws and media-two party-opoly. I'd be...

Yeah, a lot of people are not happy with the two party system. But they're not quite fed up yet because the vast majority of them haven't been paying attention at all. And the fact that most people have no clue what's already happened and merely wait for the parties to have their candidates...

Obviously, the next election will not be about Ron Paul. But as a central committee member of my state, my first proposal will be to make all delegates unbound. And I think it will have a great chance of passage. Every state needs the flexibility to make those who are most interested in the...

And yes, DOMA is one of those things that Ron is wrong about. Simply pointing out his position, then saying because of it that DOMA is a good thing, is lazy. Ron has always pandered a bit to the religious haters among the R party. And that's the biggest problem I have always had with Ron. That...

Yes, every single election is rigged. Yes, Ron really won. Feel better? I see this same comment over and over and have for decades. The elections are rigged. If that's true, then why aren't you out with semi-automatic rifles overthrowing the scoundrels? Why? I'll tell you why. Because you...

It's kind of funny. Romney's popularity in Mass is almost exactly what it was when he decided not to run for re-election as governor. He was at about 36% in the polls then, too. Too bad he's not basing his decision to run this time on how badly he's going to get his ass kicked in Mass. That...

And that's exactly what they're supposed to do. It's money for the Romney campaign. This isn't all that unusual. Many candidates have done this in the past. Some places they funnel the money into the state and county parties to assist in the campaign. Other places they do what they're doing in...
