Entry: Goodbye to Politics Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/goodbye_to_politics#13628 Post contents: Ron Paul got his ass waxed and it was predictable he would. Nobody like Paul is EVER gong to win an election in these United States and the idea it was even possible he could win or make a serious challenge was, sadly, seriously entertained by those whose knowledge of history ought to have told them otherwise. Magical thinking does not advance the cause of liberty one bit and the fact so many were swept away in the enthusiasm is a very bad sign. When magical thinking began capturing the intellects of so many on my side, I knew how right I was to anticipate the easily predictable outcome and just how much trouble our side is in. Those engaged in the magical thinking must not ever look at the TV news or listen to Rush or Beck or any of the other "conservative" chatterers who are SO popular with the rest of our countrymen. Did Paul even get 10% of the vote? If he did, in what way is that a victory or even a sign of hope? As to where does he go from here? He goes no where and he arrives there rapidly. Sent at: 2009 01 07
