Oh, I don't agree with Paul's answer. I'm just saying it probably won't matter that much to the average voter, who only vaguely followed the Plame/Libby matter. My guess is it wasn't even a seriously considered response -- it was just a symbolic answer to show solidarity with a certain kind of antiwar voter and an opportunity for Paul to inject his Iraq views into the debate. Now, there are probably even fewer of those kinds of voters in the Republican primaries than there are people who care deeply about whether Libby gets pardoned, but that's why Paul's is largely a symbolic candidacy.
