Who Imitated Ron's Positions the most?

[TheEvilDetector]

Who is the BIGGEST faker (biggest sudden adopter of Ron's positions without having a track record of supporting such)?

Who is trying the HARDEST to pretend they hold Ron's positions?

Who is the LOUDEST voice in being suddenly fond of "limited government", "constitution", "choice", "free markets" etc positions that Ron has always believed in?

That could be the title of a viral youtube video showing how Paul has said all these things for years, but now in the last debate for the first votes are cast, all the other candidates fight to copy the supposedly 'fringe' 'longshot'.

There was no selection for "everyone" :confused:

LOL, just pick the worst of the worst.

Tancredo, hands down.

[Hurricane Bruiser]

Well Tancredo is not a Faker. He may sound like Paul but they agree on many things except foreign policy so I can't really count him.

I can't decide.

[Derek]

I don't think it's fair to accuse Tancredo of imitating Paul's positions. Tancredo is the one other Republican candidate who genuinely believes in following the Constitution and has the record to show it. He's a member of Paul's Liberty caucus in Congress, remember?

Tancredo just happens to be horribly wrong on foreign policy and the war on terror. It's the others who are imitating Paul, though -- not Tancredo.

Romney and Rudy probably because it is so DIFFERENT from what they pushed for originally. Unfortunately, I think Thompson is the one who will get away with it the most since he didn't seem to have ANY position originally.

[tnvoter]

Heh, Posers. We aren't falling for it this time, RP '08!

[kaleidoscope eyes]

the other candidates are a joke, of course we know that, we've been watching this evolve for quite while. the problem is, the rest of america that hasn't been paying attention, won't know everyone else BUT RP is making a mockery and a sham of truly decent political philosophy. It makes me feel a little ill, but, I'm still confident that RP's integrity and the feeling that you get when you watch him speak, you hear his TRUE convictions that go deep into his heart and bones will let them see the truth. ( i pray this is true) This is what brought me into caring about an election and a politician (gasp!) for the first time in my life. the apathy is over, i hope it's catching on. ;)

[steph3n]

Guiliani, Thomspon and Tancredo have said it before and it kinda means something to them.

[idiom]

I fell off my sofa when they all started saying 'constitution' and oh my now they all think The Debt is a national security issue ('cept Rudy who doesn't get it)...

[AtomiC]

Huckabee was totally stealing RP's ideas.

[Hurricane Bruiser]

Huckabee: The founders of this great country....... We should have a nationwide smoking ban. Huh? The Huckster was the worst stealer IMO.

[Dequeant]

They have to try to steal RP supporters.......otherwise they're going to lose. He has to many i's, d's, l's, and c's voting for him. The others are relying completely on r's.......a party whose membership has shrunk considerably because of the Bush presidency. Even Rudy's comments prove they're scared and they KNOW the polls are highly skewed..... "Ron Paul is going to be the suprise of the decade".

They know it's coming, they're trying like mad to slow him down. If you notice, nobody went after Huck.....they ALL imitated Ron Paul (except Tancredo....arguably). They have to, the primaries are only weeks away and Ron Paul is going to sweep um.

Get it done!

Tancredo is racist, despite his protestations to the contrary.

[JohnnyWrath]

Tancredo has been trying to throw in some Paul comments all along, but I voted Huckabee because all of the sudden he is now trying, and that made it more evident. I wish Tancredo would just go away personally...I love how the media never gets on him about being an isolationist although he wants to get rid of even legal immigration...

They all are trying to copy Ron Paul lately...

[FreedomAndLaw]

Paul and Kucinich are both respectable sincere candidates in their respected parties, but their ideas in the hands of the "Front Runners" are horrifying.

[Todd]

I'd say Huckabee and Romney are the biggest chamelions and have nothing to lose with this strategy. It sounds so.....Conservative!!!
