Ron Paul keeps on running

• http://www.post-gazette.com, By James O'Toole
 

Texas Rep. Ron Paul reveled in hometown cheers on a campaign visit Friday to the town where he grew up, rallying voters for the all-but-forgotten Pennsylvania primary.

But while Tuesday's balloting may not be prominent on the radar screens of more casual voters, the thousands of partisans who enthusiastically rallied his message of civil liberties, fiscal fundamentalism at home and non-intervention abroad appeared thoroughly engaged.

Just blocks from where he served his medical residency at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, thousands of supporters lined up around the block waiting to hear the Republican iconoclast. The crowd, including many young families and young people, filled Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hall and met Mr. Paul's 50-minute oration with deafening cheers and repeated chants of "Ron Paul, Ron Paul."
