What bothered me is his statement to remove the IRS and cut all that income to the government, but yet he thinks the FBI, CIA etc should still be around, he just doesn't want them to torture people. OK, how does he truly expect to keep the government running? When you go in and start saying that you want to cut the troops, the irs, etc.., you should probably have a generic idea as to how much money it costs to run the government agencies he wants to cut, how many troops are spread throughout the us. I don't think he has to know every stat for every political question, but if this is your platform you are running on it would make sense to be able to have a guesstimate like Tim Russert had on the number of troops.
IMHO that interview did very little to help his cause. I am not sure who I am voting for at this point, Ron Paul has some descent ideas., but some are just left field.
