It was just uncomfortable watching it all.

Yeah. Its especially painful to watch when you consider how hard it was to push these people out of the Republican Party over the last 40 years. Then this guy rears his ugly head and manages to gain a good deal of momentum. Its infuriating. I think it's a Democratic year anyway so I would actually be thrilled if Paul ran as an Independent. Then we Republicans would be free of him and his ilk in the same way we are free of Patrick Buchanan who holds some of the same views. I know Pat is oppossed to the war for the same reason Paul is and believe me, the constitution doesn't have anything to do with it.
