Doug Wead continues his series of articles about Congressman Ron Paul today. He likens him to Winston Churchill and claims that it is now suddenly popular to emulate him. After rehashing a lot of the marginalization of Paul’s campaign Wead writes:

“Slowly, inexorably, Ron Paul’s message is beginning to take. Members of his own party and liberal media personalities, some who would have been the least expected, have begun to sense the danger. Conservatives are coming home, some ashamed, acknowledging that it was they, not Ron Paul, who had drifted away. Some Governors and senators and televisions pundits are now mimicking Ron Paul’s message, even paraphrasing his exact words. There are Ron Paul look-alikes, such as Governor Mark Sanford. “He’s just like Ron Paul,” his supporters assure us, “only better.” Who would have thunk it? It is now popular to be like Ron Paul.”

For all of Wead’s articles on Ron Paul, I think I enjoyed this one the most thus far. He outlines the history and reasons for Ron Paul’s popularity and then explains why we should look to him for solving our economic crisis.

After Wead’s series of articles on Sarah Palin being the GOP front runner and listing Ron Paul’s chances of the GOP nomination at 25-1 he goes back again to trumpeting his candidacy.
