Ron Paul and Unfair Nice Treatment

A bit of paranoia has arisen among the Republicans. They claim that Ron Paul has not had any real scrutiny from the press. In particular are some old newsletters put out under his name that have some outrageous stuff--as is there weren't enough already. Some of this is reactive against the surprising blitzkrieg against Herman Cain but there is a motive they see: They think that Paul, if left untouched, will be strong enough and well motivated enough to form a third party, a vote splitter that would protect a weak Obama in 2012.

They usually don't get a fair deal from the press but complaining because you are not attacked is a bit much.
