Ron Paul, the former representative for Texas, endorsed former S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford for his congressional race.

The endorsement comes as Mr. Sanfords campaign is struggling. The latest hit hes faced is the recent revelation that his ex-wife filed a complaint in court that he trespassed and violated a court order to stay away from her home. Subsequently, the National Republican Congressional Committee pulled its support for Mr. Sanford.

Mr. Paul acknowledged the flagging campaign in his endorsement letter, Roll Call reported.

If youre anything like me, when you hear GOP establishment types coming out of the woodwork to defeat a fellow Republican, it certainly piques your interest, he wrote, Roll Call reported. Now, even the national Republican party is pulling funding for his race.

Mr. Sanford faces a tough challenge from Democratic candidate Elizabeth Colbert Busch. Shes comedian Stephen Colberts sister.

Its expected that Mr. Pauls endorsement will bring much-needed cash to the campaign, Roll Call said.

The nascent libertarian think tank has brought on some colorful characters that could complicate Rand Paul's attempts to mainstream Paulism

Last week, while most of the U.S. was focusing on the bombings in Boston and fertilizer plant explosionin West, Texas, recently retired Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) launched his own think tank, the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. The stated goal of the the institute is to continue and expand "Paul's lifetime of public advocacy for a peaceful foreign policy and the protection of civil liberties at home."

On Thursday, columnist James Kirchick trashed the new institute atThe Daily Beast. "There is nothing inherently wrong with noninterventionism," the cornerstone of Paul's foreign policy, says Kirchick.But when you look at who's on the institute's advisory board and academic board, he points out, it becomes clear that Paul has "decisively thrown in his lot with a bevy of conspiracy theorists, cranks, and apologists for some of the worst regimes on the planet."

The advisory board, Kirchick says, includes Lew Rockwell, Paul's former chief of staff and the man most probably responsible for the "toxic stew of racism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, sympathy for right-wing militia movements, and support for a litany of conspiracy theories" in Ron Paul's branded newsletters in the 1990s; and Fox News legal analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano, a 9/11 skeptic.

The Paul Institute's academic board is even kookier, says Kirchick. The "nuttiest" member is probably John Laughland, "a British writer who has never met a Central or Eastern European autocrat he didn't like" and is a noted apologist for the late Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic. Then there are the full-out 9/11 conspiracy theorists like Eric Magolis and Butler Shaffer. "And what would an enterprise featuring Ron Paul be without a little Civil War revisionism?" Kirchickasks. For that, Paul tapped the "neo-Confederate" Loyola University professor Walter Block, who "blames most of America's current problems on 'the monster Lincoln.'"

Paul disavowed the fringe views of Rockwell and his other supporters when he was running for president, Kirchick adds, but now that he has formally associated these cranks with his institute, it is "impossible to extricate Paul from the extremist views of his hangers-on."

Affiliating himself with some "unsavory wack jobs on the fringes of American politics" won't really hurt Paul, says Walter Russell Mead at The American Interest. "Having retired from Congress and never gotten far in Republican presidential politics, the elder Mr. Paul can safely hang out with all the Confederate apologists, truthers, and Putin sympathizers he wants." But this is disastrous for the political ambitions of his son.

Why the new Ron Paul Institute is terrible news for Rand Paul

Former Texas Rep. Ron Pauls vibrant fan base is in open rebellion this week over Sen. Rand Pauls perceived reversal on domestic drone strikes. The Kentucky Republican, whose famous 13-hour Senate floor filibuster did much to strengthen his ties with his fathers hardcore following, told Fox Business Network on Tuesday hes OK with drone strikes on American citizens who, for instance, rob a liquor store.

Ive never argued against any technology being used when you have an imminent threat, an active crime going on, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said. If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon and fifty dollars in cash. I dont care if a drone kills him or a policeman kills him.

While its true that Rand Paul has always made an exception for imminent threats a 9/11-like moment the liquor store scenario struck many libertarians as a very low threshold for domestic drone strikes, especially considering Pauls Senate floor remarks, which if you recall, took a more anti-drone stance. Heres Rand Paul on the Senate floor:

I will speak as long as it takes, until the alarm is sounded from coast to coast that our Constitution is important, that your rights to trial by jury are precious, that no American should be killed by a drone on American soil without first being charged with a crime, without first being found to be guilty by a court.

Now, a phalanx of Ron Paul, former Texas representative, and libertarian forums are revolting at the senators perceived reversal.

I am stunned by Rands statement, reads a blog post on the Daily Paul, one of the largest Ron Paul fan sites. Unmanned killers in our skys O.K.??? Really? Get away from the Neocons and war mongers Rand, their arrogant and self-righteous air is rotting your brain.

How cute. The Politician emerges, wrote Paladin69, a user on RonPaulForums.com.

I disagree with shooting first and asking questions later, added forum administrator Josh Lowry.

The hell with arresting him I guess, wrote user The Gold Standard sarcastically. Just fire a missile at him and move on to the next mundane.

Reddits brand of libertarian politics also repelled Pauls hypothetical. A missile into the storefront seems like dramatically excessive force, wrote Reddit user Ohyeahthatsright. Rand then seems to be supporting the militarization of police in their use of tools. I thought he was against the police state.
