Party elders rushed to excommunicate the instigator. Pundits howled, bloggers convulsed: ‘moonbat on Kool Aid,’ ‘crackpot,’ ‘cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.’ But for all that pious fury, a candidate few Americans had heard of owned the next day’s headlines. Ron Paul had committed the sin of truth — and the reaction revealed much about the party that shunned him.”
