Liberty MavenRon Paul wins in landslide upsetting Neo-cons and Bernanke

Ron Paul handily won his primary in his district (14) in Texas yesterday. For the nit-pickers, I’m sorry for emphasizing that it is his primary and his district as if he owns it. However, when someone wins with more than 80% of the vote against 3 other candidates, it should rightly be called “his” district and “his” primary.

So the neo-conservatives that were angered at Ron Paul’s performance in the CPAC straw poll now have another election to whine about. Ben Bernanke was probably hoping for a Paul loss as well.
There’s still hope for the anti-Ron Paul contingent though. They can campaign for the Democrat to unseat Paul in the general election. To that I say, good luck!

Congratulations to Dr. Paul on his win and to the other candidates for aspiring to public office.

If you like Ron Paul……..you're going to LOVE the Swarm!
You now have the ability to make a difference.
The root cause is the exponential math of debt backed money. Anyone who thinks that exponential growth is okay simply doesn't understand math. Our money system does not have to be backed by debt, nor should the quantity be controlled by a private "FED." True market stability will not be found until the debt saturated condition is CURED, not just swept under a mark-to-fantasy carpet.
Please help bring about a permanent cure and return the markets to that which they were intended instead of an artificial casino.

But those voters ARE American people, they just don't agree that Ron Paul is the best choice. It is (just a little) worrisome but hey, different strokes for different folks.

I just don't understand it!
Do the Republicans not get the fact that he is guaranteed his seat for life? The people love him!
They are just so closed minded that they continue to support anti-Liberty conservatives. Is it not obvious that the American people WANT candidates like Ron Paul???

This morning..do a gooble search..on Ron Paul and the neocon attacks continue…Frum(pie) and Horowitz are at it again….apparently Frum who has the economic IQ of 0 is all upset that Ron Paul disagrees withFriedman ..funny thing I doubt if old Milty was still around he would have anything good to say about W's keynsian economics that Frum likes so much.
Just another case of two jewish neocons who will do anything to have the Fed continue to print away to benefit the bankers and perpetual war in the middle east. They should just be honest and say…the welfare/warefare state is good for their views and benefits them…just be honest..
