Paul get's better reception among democrats than the Repubs
The GOP Right Wing calls Paul a loon and dismisses libertarian ideals with silly statements like "it's not 1789 anymore." A sad commentary on movement whose roots lie in the libertarian ideals expressed by Hayek and Friedman in protest against the New Deal State.
The more idealistic democratic base--as represented by the likes of DailyKos(not the special interest, group identity base)--are actually fairly receptive to libertarian ideals, moreso than the so-called conservative GOP base.
