    That's why I cast a jaundiced eye towards those who think Ron Paul will swoop in and save them - he's a lifelong Republican and, overall, kowtows to the party line, although he's considerably more honest that the leading nutbars. If he had real balls and struck out on his own, like Ross Perot did, I'd be a lot less critical.
