I think Oliver was just tweaking the Pauliens. However, Ron Paul's supporters are not that numerous. He's like Romney, but with only a fraction of the money and no leads in the early states. This figure might get him some media time, but for most voters, the more they know about Ron Paul, the less they like him. “Your depth of political acumen is pretty shallow is you think this is all due to ‘9/11 truthers having some revenge’.”

However, Ron Paul’s supporters are not that numerous. He’s like Romney, but with only a fraction of the money and no leads in the early states.

This figure might get him some media time, but for most voters, the more they know about Ron Paul, the less they like him.

Instead of making wild assumptions, go to a Ron Paul rally (that regulalrly outnumber other GOP candidate's rallies, in terms of sheer attendance) and speak with those who show up. You'll find many, many people who are Republicans in the traditional sense..they favor non interventionism, fiscal conservatism, limited government and constitutional liberties. NO OTHER GOP candidate is offering that. Your depth of political acumen is pretty shallow is you think this is all due to “9/11 truthers having some revenge”.
