Tidbits From the Ron Paul NYTimes Article
Taken verbatim from Saturday's article.
- He was one of very few Republicans in Congress to back Ronald Reagan against
Gerald Ford for the 1976 Republican nomination.
- [In his '96 Congressional race] Paul had only two prominent backers: the tax activist Steve Forbes and the pitcher Nolan Ryan, Paul's constituent and old friend, who cut a number of ads for him. They were enough. Paul edged Laughlin in a runoff and won an equally narrow general election.Nolan Ryan would be a nice celebrity to see publicly support Ron again. And hopefully Ryan wouldn't pull a Barry Manilow and also contribute to six other candidates.

HAHAHA! Believe me, you'll learn Ron Paul's name now that you'll be living full-time with his biggest supporter.
It certainly was a fantastic time all-around and thanks for having us. Now that's a house that you can relax in!
Once I come up with the perfect post to describe the festivities I'll get it up there.
