Ron Paul is Seabiscuit, Anyone Agree?
Submitted by rpm247 on Sat, 12/29/2007 - 23:26
In 1938 a horse inspired a nation. Nearly 40 million Americans listened to the race on the radio that day. The rest is history. Beginning next Thursday, Ron Paul, aka "underdog", and the revolution will make history. Watch: » |

Can you believe Ron Paul supporters have already been there and left comments!?
He is totally Seabiscuit
Remember this as I am a horse racing person.
SEABISCUIT WAS A CLOSER.
He never ran well on the front end, but he closed in the stretch and caught his foes like a hammer on an anvil.
He beat great big fabncy schmancy NY horse, War Admiral in a match race.
Seabisuit wanted it more than his competitors ...the only time he lost was when he was "giving up" huge weight "handicaps" to lesser horses.
Like the doc:
He was not pretty. He was smaller and cobbier.
He closed at the end of the race like hell on wheels.
He had a long career with basically no success, until he found his stride.
He set track records and made more money than any of the other horses.
He kind of liked the crowds
He was the famous underdog, after a lousy career at crummy tracks...he came on and "smoked" the best horses of the era.
People LOVED Seabiscuit. When he ran a race the entire country would stop and listen on the radio. Everybody had "two bits on the biscuit."
He captured the imagination of the whole world...just like the doc.
And finally he just plain wanted it more than the other horses...just like us.
Race horses run with their hearts and they said "his heart was a big as a house."
Just like the Doc.
