In reply to the discussion: STUDY: Ron Paul Never Attacked Romney Once During 20 Debates, But Attacked Romney’s Rivals 39 Times [View all]ProSense

The debates did not being two months ago.
During the time period in question Ron Paul has attacked Mitt Romney. As I said, perhaps not on the debates, although I doubt it. He did nonetheless.
The bigger question is why does it matter? They're all batshit anyways.

...not the point. The point is the appearance of collusion. Also, this completely shatters the myth perpetuated that Paul is somehow anti-GOP establishment. As I said above, some have even gone so far as to claim that Paul is the GOP establishment's worse nightmare.
Fact is, Paul is a typical Republican hypocrite, an opportunist and a racist. So you're right, "They're all batshit..."
My question is: Why it important to give Paul the benefit of the doubt?
Is there any reason why Think Progress or anyone shouldn't be calling out Republicans?
