Ron-ulans

Let me just be the last person to tell you that Ron Paul raised a s***load of money yesterday.

I was just on tv talking about this and Scarborough asked one of the other panelists -- Matthew Continetti -- if the Republican party should be talking Paul seriously. Continetti said that he wasn't sure if the people who voiced support for Paul in the polls were "actually Republican voters." He said they might be people who usually don't vote, or don't usually vote Republican but "are responding to Paul's anti-war message or to his anti-government message."

It took all my strength not to jump in and say, "I think Ron Paul supporters responding to the messages they get through their fillings."

The Paul phenomenon is about to be the story that bored reporters decide to do to break of the monotony of HIllary. But the monotony will be back.
