nah those high traffic days are over for this blog. even RP-bashing, a la Reason Magazine style, that contributors here were so keen on a couple years ago is not going to resurrect that level of activity.

Some of the crazy Ron Paul supporters still read (and occasionally post) at TLP. In fact, it was the Ron Paul 2008 campaign that actually put TLP on the map for us.

Personally, I love to see Ron Paul winning at CPAC. 2012 election issues notwithstanding, I see the win as an indication that an increasing number of college students have heard his ideas and support limited government and fiscal responsibility.

Sounds good to me.

Bob,

It’s not the old days yet. We haven’t seen traffic spike through the roof, and the 100-comment ~~flame wars~~ threads haven’t shown up.

But I’m sure the true believers will find their way back, and we’ll be back to our old form!

Its like old times at TLP! People are writing about Ron Paul, Doug is back with a column, and Drew went as far as writing “Big change is coming, for real this time.” Can it be long before Buckwheat and Darrel tell us that RP is going to be the next President?

I still do not think Ron Paul has any chance at winning the general election. Last election the establishment just ignored him, I do not think that will work this time around. They will have to at least acknowledge the points he is bringing up.

It’s exciting to see Ron Paul back. The Establishment is worried, and they should be.

He raised more money than any other Republican in 2007, and he’ll likely do that again in 2011.

It will be more difficult for the media to marginalize him this time, too.

Big change is coming, for real this time.

Umm, Ok, I read your page, and while it has quite a list of very good points on the current scientific status of Global Warming, I fail to see what that has to do with who conservatives think should be the next president?

Hi,

Here is a story I just wrote giving 75 reasons to be skeptical of global warming.

I’d be glad if you’d consider it for your website.

Thank you.
