I imagine most of the people who disapprove of Lincoln are libertarians/paleoconservatives, and they'd be inclined to vote for Paul (in GOP primaries) or the Libertarian candidate (in the general).

I think that's more of the case outside of the South.  Southerners who disapprove of Lincoln tend to be fairly typical Republicans.

Meaning Copperheads? Yeah, you're probably right. Paul actually gets some of his worst numbers in the Deep South (except South Carolina in '12).
