Warren Redlich: If Ron Paul Wins Iowa…
One of Ron Paul’s longer term problems in this campaign is that his outlook tends to be gloomy. He frequently talks about how our country is bankrupt. While this is true, and it connects with what people are feeling now, what they really want is hope for the future.
Ron Paul can, and sometimes does, deliver this kind of optimistic view. When confronted on Meet the Press with the Keynesian attitude that cutting government spending damages the economy, Paul pointed out what happened at the end of World War II: “draconian cuts … stimulated the economy.”

[Peyton] Hillis decided to comply with teammate Tony Pashos request (after persistent begging) that he advertise for Pashos’ favorite presidential candidate. Pashos has had bumper stickers for Paul, the candidate vying for the Republican nomination, taped to his locker all season.
OH, YOU: “You can’t see it, but there’s also Ron Paul keychain hooked around his junk.”
“Who do you support for president?” Pashos shouted. “Ron Paul,” Hillis said, simply. “He represents the constitution and what it needs to be.”

NAOMI WOLF: The shocking truth about the crackdown on Occupy..
[W]hen you connect the dots, properly understood, what happened this week is the first battle in a civil war; a civil war in which, for now, only one side is choosing violence. It is a battle in which members of Congress, with the collusion of the American president, sent violent, organised suppression against the people they are supposed to represent. Occupy has touched the third rail: personal congressional profits streams.
NYPD impounds Wikileaks truck at Occupy Wall Street, then “loses” it…
So, where’s the truck? Stecklow, said the truck wasn’t at the city impound, either. But he’s been in contact with the NYPD legal department and is trying to track it down. “My hope is that the NYPD is going to locate it, and explain why it disappeared,” Stecklow said. Said Stoeckley: “I want my truck back immediately. It was illegally taken from me and it is illegally being held from me. That is not courtesy, professionalism or respect.”
UPDATE: Sympathetic judge releases Wikileaks truck, drops all tickets..
