It's bound to happen. Hopefully the mods here won't use any thuggish tactics to stamp them out.

I don't think I can handle another hundred threads on the countless improbable ways Paul could possibly become President.

LaRouche (D) -v- Hitler (R) -v- Paul (Americans Elect).

Discuss with maps.

If Paul wins Iowa, the internet will collapse.

So don't worry.

The mods need to man the barricades and ensure that not a single Paultard makes it through registration.

They may also need to go after posters who have sympathized with Paulism in the past. We cannot be too careful.

Didn't Stark and his friends from Stormfront threaten to invade the forum during the 2008 primary season?

If this is the weekly "libertarians are like this, lol" thread I must say I'm a little disappointed.

In fact, the mods need to just outright put a ban on anyone with children named Paul!

The great irony is that "libertarians" can't even agree on what libertarianism is, but the lefties are absolutely sure of what it is. (Mostly something involving eating kittens in somalia, from the looks of it?)

Yes, and they did. It wasn't a very powerful invading force though.

There was like two who came who were banned the same day. The bigger problem was the 4chan trolls who followed Straha here at the end of 2008, but they were wiped out in about a week. I've always noticed that the period between Christmas and roughly mid-January tends to attract a lot of trolls (call it the "bored college freshman at home effect"), and if Paul wins we can only imagine the increase.
