Yeah thanks to stalking Hannity and spamming everything we have a horrible reputation.
whatever dude...we all know all of those hannity listeners (hard core, warmongering, patriot act loving neo-cons) were ready to stop listening to Hannity and convert en masse into ron paul supporters, until...gasp! some enthusiastic ron paul supporters started chanting "fox news sucks"
In fact, due to the MSM brownout, we don't have much of a reputation at all. Few people even know who Ron Paul is, so why don't you give it a rest already.

You know how many people that scared off? like Fred Thompson supporters who had Ron Paul as a second choice.
They think we're "9/11 was an inside job" mentally unstable Paultards.
I don't care how awful Hannity is. No reporter is going to give a candidate a chance when his supporters make threats against his/her life.
If we all sat still with our hands clasped they'd still make us out to be kooks.
Everytime people say this or that cause bad press, we actually get good press.
Remember last week when they "Ron Paul!"'d while Rudy was trying to speak? That got us GREAT interviews and Ron Paul answered amazingly.
Free speech is free speech, and anyone that wants to squelch it on these forums needs to understand that freedom is the message.

yelling incoherently doesn't help the message
Wow, f Digg indeed. Makes my blood boil. Just emailed Digg (feedback@digg.com) to let them know what I think about this.
This isn't a congressional hearing. This is a mock WGA hearing by Colbert and Stewart writers.

There is no justification you can come up with that will make acting like a moron a good thing. Because it just isn't. It only causes harm to the campaign.
The problem is that it makes you feel good, and that is more important to you than the campaign or the message.
A lot of RP supporters are in it for how it makes them feel, rather than for promoting a message or idea. That's why you see so much of this crap.

First of all, that crowd never threatened Hannity's life. Secondly, I know 9/11 was an inside job. Does that mean I'm mentally unstable? No. Am I a "Paultard?" Why do you buy into these goddamn labels like the smear artist assholes? Is a "Paultard" someone who worries about what the opposition says when they fight for a cause?

We are going for a GOP nomination here and we did have a chance at it once. But acts like this and showing up at straw polls chanting Paul's name is not how you ingratiate yourself with the party faithful. It wasn't just Hannity listeners that saw this video either. This was the biggest grassroots blunder so far and I believe it cost us a lot. Once we go third party, things can loosen up a bit but for now, we need to be playing the part of good little Republicans.
