re: #120 Killgore Trout

I think it’ll go over well with his crazy base. The neocon thing is over with and Ron Paul’s isolationism has been becoming more popular since the election. The next round of Tea Parties could easily become anti-war protests.

That would be a huge mistake for the Paulians - as that would clearly put them into a position that the center would oppose them on. No one who has really advocated a policy of isolationism gets traffic these days - too many people know how that failed in the 30’s.

If they overstep like this - then the dividing line between the fringe and the center would be clear - and the fringe will be cast out once again just on that issue.
