In a recent media appearance, Ron Paul pointed out that the various attempts at smearing his campaign highlight the fact that his opponents are beginning to panic about his increased media attention and rise in the polls:
They’re getting awfully frightened. I think we are a threat to the establishment, and they represent the establishment.
I think they represent a philosophical position which is diametrically opposed to us and our interpretation of the Constitution – I think it’s serious business when people strike out like that and start using names like Islamic fascism – they’re working on fear. I see these people as very insecure – they don’t understand what freedom is about and they have to resort to this threatening, but turning around and calling us the violent people – I think they’re very insecure with their ideas and probably deep down in their heart they think they’re being good Americans.
