Other Candidates Parrot Dr. Paul's Message of Liberty & Limited Government

Latecomers to the Freedom Message Talk the Talk, but Only Ron Paul
Walks the Walk
ARLINGTON, Va.--(Business Wire)--In the run up to New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation presidential
primary, other Republican candidates have noticeably changed their
message in an apparent attempt to tap into the support that
Congressman Paul has received with his message of freedom, limited
government and adherence to the Constitution.

One story on CBS News' website titled "Huckabee Sounding A Little
Like Ron Paul" observed that "Huckabee's words sound like an issues
statement on fellow candidate Ron Paul's campaign website. It's not
plagiarism, but their points are quite similar."

Responding to Huckabee's new messaging, Ron Paul campaign
spokesman Jesse Benton stated: "While Mike Huckabee and the other
Republican candidates talk about obeying the Constitution and
protecting life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, only Dr. Paul
has a record - spanning four decades - of demonstrated adherence to
traditional conservative principles."
