The ideas aren't new either, the libertarian party has been around for a looong time, and they never manage to get more than token support on election day.

The reason Paul is doing so well right now is because there alot of people in the republican party who have libertarian views on alot of issues, and they feel like they were betrayed by Bush and the recent republican majority and their out of control spending.

At the end of the day though, he's not going to get elected. He will however have a substantial impact on the race, which was most likely his goal from the beginning.
