Frankly, these tactics serve as evidence to me the individual candidates are unable to win on merits of a constructive plan. I'm saddened to see the abuse inflicted on Ron Paul (and McCain) by GOP establishment and GOP constituency alike. Paul deserves more respect even if people disagree with him. I've lost lots of respect for right wing media & GOP treatment of him. If they'd confront him on merits of argument it would be one thing, but it never is. Totally defeats the point of free speech.

it isn't just the right wing treating ron paul badly, and the left wing media is doing their best to ignore him entirely.
i certainly didn't see "abuse" on mccain, because he got the nomination-even after being proven to be a crook, an arms dealer to terrorists, and a war profiteer.
i am pretty sure that the media wanted mccain to run.
i also don't think the "push" to move gingrich to the head of the pack was accidental either.
