Meanwhile, Ron Paul

He shouldn’t be an ‘also ran’ or even an afterthought. And he’s not being taken as one, at least by those who realize the importance and strength of the candidate’s following.


Romney's election night launch

It had the air of a new day and new beginning. Even critics in media punditry noticed that.
