Behind the scenes the insider Republican establishment is now in an uproar as the odds are high that Rand Paul wins the Republican nomination for senator from Kentucky. This would be a major embarrassment to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and raises a big question about 2012: Why is Sarah Palin getting so much attention, and Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) so little, from the national media and pundit classes?

Certain pundits appear strangely infatuated with Palin, but it seems to me that if Ron Paul runs for president in 2012, he could win a plurality of delegates in a multi-candidate field. My guess is that Ron Paul does run for president and Sarah Palin does not, but who knows? Why is it that major media are so unwilling to take a close and serious look at Ron Paul as a potential candidate for president, while they pant with excitement at every breath Palin takes?

If Rand Paul wins, it sends cold chills up the spines of Washington Republicans, and it may well force the media to take a close look at what happens if Ron Paul runs for president.

Do the math, folks...

After the Tea Party explosion last year, I think things are starting to settle down and the movement is wanting to add meat to its bones.

As charasmatic as she is, there's no meat to be found with Sarah Palin - just rhetoric and talking points (and if I hear her say "common sense conservative" one more time...).

So the Tea Party is looking for meat and there's plenty of it at the Paul household. Heck, look at GOP Maine. Their constitution now states a belief in the principles of the Austrian school.

And the more people give folk like Ron Paul a second look, the more they'll surely say, "You know what, he guy makes a well-reasoned argument. Kinda refreshing, given the usual political discourse."
