ABC News - Senator John McCain has won the Republican party's caucuses in Louisiana while long-shot candidate Ron Paul took second place Tuesday night, the state party said, citing preliminary results.
Ron Paul follows up his second place finish in Nevada with a second place finish in Louisiana. His campaign drew praise from the State GOP Chairman (not a Paul supporter):
"I applaud the supporters of Congressman Paul for their enthusiasm and superior organizational ability," Villere said. "Our Party needs the infusion of new activists who have both political skill and a passion for protecting the freedoms guaranteed to us by the Constitution," he said. "I left the caucus with a renewed commitment to promote our core Republican principles of limited government and individual freedom, thanks to the zeal displayed by Congressman Paul's Louisiana supporters," Villere said.
This influence on the conversation is exactly why many support Ron Paul. He is reminding those who should not have forgotten - and educating a new generation of political activists - about the Constitutional role of government.
The unelectable one just keeps hanging around.
