The wheels start falling off the Ron Paul wagon in the second half of the second Jon Stewart clip (above).
If Obama doesn't have the power to line up the DC elites, what chance do you think Ron Paul will have? Which side would he even caucus with?
The bigger question is, which side does Ron Paul hurt most if he gains in popularity before the election? He has a young following, so does he hurt Obama more? He also has a Tea Party following too, so does he hurt the GOP more?
I personally think he would syphon off more Republican voters, so I like him.
Go go Ron Paul!
