In Reason, Dave Weigel and Julian Sanchez make
the case that Lew Rockwell was Ron Paul's ghostwriter. They also
argue, correctly I think, that Paul owes it to his young
supporters, who signed up for the 2008 campaign for reasons quite
distinct from the paleolibertarian strategy of the late 1980s and
early '90s, to take more direct "moral responsibility" for the
newsletters by addressing them more frankly. John Zmirak urges fellow paleos to do some soul searching
as well. John Derbyshire takes a different view of the controversy.
