Ron Paul channels voters' outrage

Ron Paul channels voters' outrage:

"Adam de Angeli had always been a quintessential liberal. He marched against the Iraq war, supported anti-poverty programs and voted Democratic. Nearly everyday he hangs out at a brick storefront on Ann Arbor's Main Street. Its 20-something customers and worn-out college couches are just what you'd expect in the heart of Michigan's most liberal bastion. Then de Angeli, 26, answers his cell phone and begins extolling the virtues of libertarianism and Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul to his latest convert. This is no fad, he says. Next year, he wants to run for local government as a Paul apostle.
...

There's a great jumbling of the socio-political labels by which people had defined themselves for decades.

Along the center left, grassroots Democrats threaten to boot Dem leaders from office for supporting the Iraq war. And hard-core leftist groups such as MoveOn.org are actually praising U.S. Rep. Ron Paul from Texas.

Along the center right, the shake-up is no less surprising. "Crunchy cons" -- nature-loving right-wingers -- are espousing local organic farming. Evangelical leaders once apathetic on the environment now promise to stop global warming."

Ron Paul on the Left, Ron Paul on the Right - he is gathering support from both sides.
