Brian Doherty on Ron Paul's Last Stand
Ron Paul ran for president and won. Not the presidency, but over two million highly energetic people who—when given the chance—voted for peace, freedom, and sound money. The results of the general election seemed to indicate that a GOP without its Paul faction is at best a losing party, writes Brian Doherty. His faction is not going away, and with Romney's drubbing and a country that doesn't seem as if it is going to escape its fiscal tailspin any time soon, they bid fair to be even more influential in 2016.
