Ron Paul represents more Americans on the issues they care most about than any other candidate in the GOP field. Republicans are going to be fighting up hill against the scandal issues as well as the War in Iraq in all likelihood and Ron Paul is uniquely equipped to take on both of these issues.

Mostly on account of Paul supporters lack of faith in the mainstream GOP.

This doesnt speak to any other their level of conservativeness (I think i just made up a new word) but rather who would give the Republicans the best chance to win. In order to beat the Democrats in '08 the GOP needs to pick a candidate who gives them the best chance to win and I think one of these candidates gives them the best chance. Although I believe a Huckabee or even McCain could make a good President I dont think either of them has the staying power against the Dems. No need to even talk about the Dennis Kucinich of the GOP although his grassroots support has been impressive. I hope these same people will show the same effort to whoever the candidate is next year for the General Election.

Can someone remind me who on the Republican side is for the flat tax and who is for dumping the income tax and going with a national sales tax?

How does Brownback have a better chance then Paul? Lets see Paul is not electable? He only supports what the 70 % of the American people support about being against our actions in Iraq. Seems like thats a pretty mainstream position to me. Yeah of course Ron Paul is left out but Brownback is inculded in this post. How does Brownback have a better chance then Paul?
