Not too fond of their conclusion that his appointment to chair the subcommittee would cause him to not run for President. That sounds like a rather biased conclusion. And, they're still using "quixotic"? You'd think he'd already announced for 2012, using language like that!

The Atlantic is generally supportive of Ron Paul (though begrudgingly IMO):

Hmm, well without knowing too much about the company, what you said in this quote could almost be read as a summary of the article in the OP. It sounded generally supportive, and acknowledged the tide is turning our way, but had to chide a bit too.

LOL, if I didn't know any better I would assume Congressman Paul's first name was "Quixotic libertarian Ron."
