With the official announcement, Paul now has a long journey ahead until 2012. His poll numbers are better than expected. His followers are greater than in 08′ and his chances are actually reasonable. He has the charisma, the dedication, and the message. He will undoubtedly face all the same oppositions he had in 2008, except now he has new opponents. With the exception of Gary John, a libertarian, Paul is the only vocal opponent of America’s entangling alliances overseas. Chances are his message will begin to resonate with the American people. His words and his forceful conviction on foreign policy are sure to receive a welcome from mainstream American voters.
Key to this entire presidential race is New Hampshire. The “Live Free” state is generally libertarian and an important part of the Paul strategy.<>
