And there is yet another smear attempt that was "conveniently" made right on the eve of the NH primary, hopefully the rumors of numerous lawsuits being brought against the author as well as the New Republic are true, they deserve no less than to pay up, with the money won going right into the Ron Paul campaign fund! I hope this time, they do not just settle for the retraction.
