Presidential longshot Ron Paul stopped here yesterday to a packed house with hundreds being turned away because of a standing room only venue.
I know there are a lot of Republicans around here but was really surprised at two things.
One, that there are that many Ron Paul supporters in this area and two, why he picked Vancouver when Portland is right across the river and is ten times as big as Vancouver..
It's a mystery to me.
I'll be the first to admit I have some libertarian leanings and out of all the crazy motherfuckers running with an R behind their name, he is the only one I would ever consider holding my nose for, even he is too far out there for my tastes on too many subjects though..
Still, it was interesting to see such a turn out for him in this neck of the woods.

Maybe he went to Vancouver instead of Portland for the same reason I would - I've got a bench warrant in Oregon for FTA. Heh.
