yes, he is still just as much of a kook. he is also becoming a more skilled attention whore with the ability to cash in on a headline. nobody was getting spooled up enough about auditing the fed, but on this one he's got Drudge doing his PR for him every day.
So are you saying you disagree with RP on this? The bottom-line is, kook or not, RP was ahead of most of the Rep Old Boys Club including the last Presidential candidate we fielded, on this. Way ahead. So whether you think he's nuts or not, some grudging kudos are possibly in order for being out ahead of the crowd. (Also called "leadership" as opposed to following along like a good partisan.) Also, one might want to re-evaluate their assessment of his kookiness if RP is right on this. I mean, he might be like, right on a few other things, like auditing the Fed? Or not?
No offense, just sayin'...
Also, wasn't one of the knocks on RP that he wasn't well enough known to be effective? That he had sound ideas but had such a bad presentation and was so unknown that his ideas could never get airplay? Isn't being an attention whore a
good thing in this case? Or maybe not...
