On my way to work today I stopped at a convenience store for gas. Since I live in Florida, it is of course, primary day.
I was going in to by a cup of coffee when the door burst open and a character straight out of Deliverance emerged. "Hope you're going to go vote for Ron Paul today, and make this a better America!" he bellowed inches from my face. His eyes were bright, shiny, almost feverish looking, and he had a mile-wide smile plastered on his face. As he stormed on past me I watched him walk out toward the gas pumps where I saw a decrepit work van sitting. The van was completely covered with large Ron Paul signs, even the rear and side windows. And when I say the windows were covered, I mean <i>completely</i> covered. Thankfully for the rest of us on the road today, at least he left the windshield uncovered. Obviously, a man only interested in what lies ahead.

I started to yell "Hey Taco!" just to see if he turned around, but decided against it.

As an atypical Ron Paul supporter, I guess I should just note that I've read your post and move on.

Sounds terrifying...

Omarion is asking for your prayers in this trying time.

That's not a typical Ron Paul supporter. He wasn't wearing a straight jacket. And, he wasn't in a mental institution.

I heard a Ron Paul ad on a Christian talk radio station today. It basically hinted around about him being pro-life, but I don't think I ever heard the word "pro-life". Kind of odd.

Everyone is in favor of life. Ron Paul would rather honestly state that he's against abortions than make the person on the other side of the debate have to defend the false position of being in favor of death.
