I’ll See Your Toast And Raise You A Bagel December 31, 2011

Predicting that Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich will both fail to gain the GOP nomination isn’t exactly like betting that the Packers get beat in the first round of the playoffs. If you assume that Republican voters want to actually retake the White House, as opposed to just sending some kind of bizarre message, they’ve got to nominate a moderate, and the only one they have at the moment is Mitt Romney.
Meanwhile, here’s an interesting thought to contemplate:
Why Liberals Should Seriously Consider Ron Paul
The man has a point. Paul would like to get us out of all our wars and not start any new ones, legalize drugs, end the death penalty, close Gitmo, and repeal The Patriot Act. Of course, he’d also like to get rid of the Department of Education, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the EPA, Roe v. Wade, and the Federal Reserve. As my old buddy Marty used to tell me in med school, nothing is ever a 10.
