The Ron Paulites

Not surprising, it seems to me, that the poll that came out of CPAC seemed to echo Ron Paul's appeal to the next generation, and not the bitter culture wars of the old Christianist guard:


Abortion

No one - sorry, Maggie - put forcibly divorcing me and my husband as their first choice. And why the hell should they? It's an absurd priority in a country facing this level of crisis. I think they're too glib about the healthcare crisis in this country and too callous with respect to those facing real distress or bankruptcy or neglect in their health. But overall, a GOP devoted above all to reducing the role of government and attacking government spending through cutting entitlements for wealthier seniors, and ending an unaffordable empire, would bring me back into the fold. Allahpundit gasps here.

This is the next generation. They give me hope.
