Piggybacking on Jim’s excellent Politico column from earlier this week on the political lessons Ron Paul could still learn, I thought I’d share this piece by authentic good egg Barry Donegan, “A Punk-Rock Libertarian in Ronald Reagan’s Court,” wherein he describes how Paul’s 2008 inspired him to run for Director at Large of the Davidson County (Nashville) Republican Party, through which he received a political education of his own.
There’s a lot of wisdom in Donegan’s suggestions on how to approach and persuade people in the poisonous atmosphere of modern politics, I think.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

Interesting.
While others are urging GOP Candidates to get some "Cajones", apparently Dr. Ron Paul already got em & is bein' encouraged to be " Nice to Neocons", who have systematically & chronically attempted to rip Dr. Paul a new asshole over the years.
Ah Ha !
The Old "Put Your Hands Behind Your Back, While The NeoCons Punch Ya In Your Face" Strategy.
Then They'll Want Dr. Paul To Play The Democrat Liberals' Favorite, " The Ole Victimhood Card".
Dr. Paul is a Gentleman & A Scholar,moving up & down the civility scale, measuring the situation & as needed, properly countering the opposition & knows when he needs to to "Put On The Gorilla Suit".
