DLTDHYA on the WO. You remember, right?  And AmericaForRichardson.org?  Vanished … like a line of blow on Keith Richard’s dresser.

Wow.  Ron Paul  is outed as … a wacky,  racist fringe pamphleteer?  Gee, who ever saw that coming?  Plus, Paul’s campaign offers what must be the single lamest defense ever:  I really should have paid closer attention to the things people were writing in my name for decades.  But take heart, paulbots.  This could mean real momentum for Lydon RaRouche this year.
