“Q: "Congressman Paul, you've questioned the fiscal conservatism of all these candidates, but particularly Senator Santorum. You have a new television ad calling him a fake. Why?"”

—  Ron Paul

A: "Because he's a fake. I find it sort of fascinating how when people are running for office they're really fiscally conservative. When they're in office, they vote for something different, and then when they explain themselves they say "Oh! I want to repeal that." So the Senator voted for No Child Left Behind. He voted for it, but now he's running on the effort to get rid of it!.....This loses credibility." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZPexbzJUU4
