"After Paul supporters won six of 12 delegate slots to the GOP national convention at Fourth, Fifth and Sixth District conventions in early April, GOP leadership expressed attitudes toward Paul supporters that ranged from dismissal to outright antagonism. But among rank and file conservative GOPers, there is a begrudging respect for the Paulites' quixotic quest to drag the Republican Party kicking and screaming back to its Goldwater/Reagan principles."
"There are about 15 Paul supporters running as Republicans for various (Minnesota) and local positions, Stebbins said. Many Paul supporters, in Republican politics for the long haul, are actively involved in local Republican organizations."
"Paul's campaign may turn out like Goldwater's. Goldwater paved the way for Reagan. Paul may be paving the way for the next Reagan."
