Entry: Why the Beltway Libertarians Are Trying to Smear Ron Paul Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/why_the_beltway_libertarians_are_trying_to_smear_ron_paul#14519 Post contents: Justin, The reason the Libertarians are attacking Ron Paul is very simple. They are running a candidate for their own party AGAINST Ron Paul, knowing full well that the majority of Libertarians are already supporting Ron Paul instead. This smear started not long after Ron Paul refused to run for their partys nomination. Their strategy has been to use the Ron Paul revolution by going to meetups, writing articles, etc.. to promote their party and recruit new libertarians, and then start hitting Ron Paul with all they got, and hope to convince people to vote for their guy instead. The libertarians in my group, for example, (not all, but many) brought donation forms for the LP and forms for declaring yourself a libertarian to every meeting, until I told them to stop. Then they simply stopped coming. Many were not interested at all of supporting Ron Paul unless he ran in their party. They are no different than the partisan hacks we have in the R and D. If I vote third party, it will likely be with the Constitution party. I will never give my vote to the libertarians after this crap. The one chance we have had in a long long time to actually get our country back, and they are trying to derail it simply for partisan reasons. Sent at: 2008 05 16
