Could we educate him and turn him into a Ron Paul Republican or do we have a new enemy?

Well, he is registered independent. That is a great starting point. We could surely have a shot at it if we could contact the guy. If he had a preliminary site (whatever they call it), that'd be a good place to start. How else would we get ahold of him?

Maybe at an autograph trade show?

He'll be better than any far-left liberal that Massachusetts can come up with. In addition, since he has WAY over $250,000, he is probably one of the people that pays almost all of the Income Tax. I doubt he would vote to raise it. However:

"Schilling campaigned for President George W. Bush in 2004, while certain members of the ownership of the Red Sox campaigned for the challenger, Senator John F. Kerry (D). Schilling was encouraged to run for Kerry's seat in the U.S. Senate in 2008 as a Republican, according to the Boston Herald. [31] However, Schilling was quoted in The Boston Globe as saying that he intended to pitch in 2008, which would preclude a Senate run.[32]

He was called to Capitol Hill to testify about steroid use in March 2005, not as a suspected user but rather as a vocal opponent. He has claimed that José Canseco's "statistics should be erased" [33] and that unless he can refute allegations that he used performance-enhancing drugs, Roger Clemens should be stripped of the four Cy Young Awards he has won since 1997. [34]

On January 29, 2007, Schilling announced in an interview that he would support Sen. John McCain (R) in the 2008 presidential election. He further criticized Sen. Hillary Clinton (D) for her comments criticizing the war in Iraq. [35] Schilling has also turned up on the campaign trail several times stumping for McCain.[36]"

He is a Neo-Con.

He also owns a game company, and plays one of my favorite games, WORLD IN FLAMES.
