Do you have any clue how massive a campaign is? You hire a campaign manager for the sole reason that you can rely on someone else to know the details, freeing you up to focus on bigger things.

Judging from all the "Blame Obama" threads here, I'd figure it's the opposite.

This isn't even news. This is one idiot trying to further himself in the eyes of Ron by bribing a politician instead of doing it the right way.

If you truly think someone is supposed to know every single conversation a staff has had verbatim in a Presidential campaign, then you are a fool. If you think all campaigns are full of only bad or good people, then you are a fool as well.

If he attempted to bribe behind RP's back, then he should be indicted. If he isn't charged or proven guilty, then I suspect this is just a hit job on the unstoppable force of the libertarian movement, and shows how scared and grasping at straws people are to keep the Repub/Democrat universe intact.

So when the Obama campaign was accused of taking illegal overseas funds to fund his campaign, you are now saying Obama knew about it?

Are you now saying Obama knew what the IRS was doing as well?

His answer to everything questionable that comes up about him is either "I didn't know" or "I didn't do that, my staffer did". Ron Paul sure knows how to pass the buck
Yes, just like the current resident of the white house along with the atty. general and you have to include Hillary also....."I don't recall".....I don't recollect".....I have no knowledge of that"......etc etc etc.....LOL

No, it's more like some mid-level official in the BATF or IRS screws up, you immediately assume it must have been on direct orders from Obama himself. Take "Dr. Evil" from the Austin Powers movies, given him a good tan, and you have essentially the RWNJ caricature of Obama.

Grow up, I didnt once say Obama had a dam thing to do with it, I questioned how posters can run around and proclaim Obama knows nothing but everyone else knows everything going on..
