The GOP has signed up woefully few female candidates this year. But CPAC hero Ron Paul is helping to close the gap. Liz Goodwin talks to Paul about his followers now running in their own right.
Ron Paul is a RINO. He stands for true conservatism, while the rest of the Republicans stand for war, corporate welfare, the Christian Taliban, and Big Brother.

wow, I alomost mis read the title as "The women of Ru Paul" .
But yes I agree Ron Paul is a RINO as per your reasons listed.
He's what the Republican party SHOULD stand for.
I don't know who would truly represent what the Democratic party SHOULD stand for though but we should find one so these guys can be held up as examples of their parties beliefs.
Those are the true roots of the parties..not the extremists that have taken over the two parties today.
"Republican In Name Only, or RINO, refers to a member of the Republican Party of the United States (the GOP) whose political views or actions are perceived as insufficiently conservative or otherwise outside the party mainstream."
i don't think this is an accurate description of Ron Paul...he's definitely not "mainstream", but he's certainly IMO a Conservative.

He supported one of the women in our local meetup. She was running for the house.

Republicans say that, but Ron Paul is the only conservative republican. The rest are fascist neocons. So either Ron Paul is the only Republican and the rest are RINO or Ron Paul is the Rino.

I disagree. Ron Paul is conservative but not a Conservative.

i see what you're saying...i've seen the word "RINO" used before, but always wondered what was being reffered to by it, and just actually looked it up!

Yeah..he's not part of the Conservative Party.
He's more of a Libertarian.
