Our hotel is currently and almost entirely populated by republican delegates from North Carolina and New Mexico. The other night, while sipping whiskey and making friends, we asked one delegate from North Carolina for his opinion of Ron Paul.

"Who?" he replied with a sneer and a wink.

That curt reaction speaks volumes about Paul's relationship with his party. Nevertheless, the man is here today to host his "Rally for the Republic," which takes place in the Twin City that didn't land the convention proper: Minneapolis. Speakers include Tucker Carlson, Jesse Ventura, Barry Goldwater, Jr., and Paul himself. It's broadcasting live here. Take a look, if you're interested in seeing what's happening on the other side of town—or finally getting an idea of just who Ron Paul is.
