In the potential Presidenital contenders series here, I am putting Ron Paul and Gary Johnson on the same thread. Why? Because they both come from strong libertarian roots and they are almost identical in their political outlook. And there has been some murmuring about them sharing a ticket.
Ron Paul won 30% of the CPAC vote this past weekend making him the winner for the second year in a row. Romney came in second with 23% of the vote placing second for the second year in a row. Johnson came in at 6% which placed him third ahead of such well known figures as Gingrich, Palin, Huckabee, Pawlenty, and Santorium.

Gary Johnson's CPAC speech:

So what do you think? Supportive? Intrigued? Apalled?
