MSNBC video-- Ron Paul's burgeoning movement

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4SXIGYs-Ww

Interesting bit of info at the 4:20 mark:

"There are two dozen Ron Paul supporters running for House or Senate seats, and about 200 seeking local office."

Not a stat you see often. Apparently it came from this Politico article:

Jared Paine, who runs a site that tracks libertarian-minded candidates, is apparently responsible for this information. Have not been able to locate him or his site yet.

Interesting to see MSNBC pundits change their tune as well. They concede that Ron will be more of a force at the convention than Gingrich, and in a decent position to extract campaign promises from Romney. Benton mentions that auditing the Fed will be at the top of their list. Going forward, the punditry notes that Ron is the only "movement candidate" in this election, and his influence will continue to be a force on the GOP after the election is long over.
