Brit Hume on Fox appeared exercised by Ron Paul's relatively strong showing. He said that he stands as much chance as winning the nomination as Ru Paul. He also criticized Newt Gingrich. I think Hume is concerned that Paul and Newt could dampen the Republican presidential election turnout or that Paul could make a 3rd party run resulting in Obama's reelction.
Absolutely.
Weird how a candidate that has the youth fired up (and for a
Republican candidate) and won both the Catholic and Independent vote is considered the fringe candidate.
EDIT -
9.01 pm. So far, Paul looks as if he will get more votes than Santorum, Perry and Gingrich combined. But somehow, all three are serious candidates and Ron Paul is RuPaul.
