Somebody should ask Ron Paul whether he voted for John McCain or Barack Obama in 2008. Four years ago, I covered his candidacy:
Asked whether he voted for Bush in 2004, Paul says no: “He misled us in 2000, when he talked about a humble foreign policy.” So did he vote for Bush in 2000? “I didn’t vote for him then, either. I wasn’t convinced he was a conservative.” So whom did he vote for? “I’m not saying. It doesn’t matter.” Confronted by a couple of decisions that didn’t strike many conservatives as close calls — Bush versus John Kerry, and Bush versus Al Gore — Paul evidently chose to opt out.
