Congressman Ron Paul visits Surfside

Why do politicians visit disaster areas?

Public relations, we guess, but a lot of them, we think, want to show they care.

The Houston daily caught up with US Rep. Ron Paul, our Favorite Son candidate for president who's gonna be on the ballot in Montana Nov. 4, who was wearing shades today, a look he doesn't typically favor.

The Houston daily flubbed the title of their video, saying the Grumpy Gynecologist was in Galveston.

Paul specifically mentions Surfside, even though Galveston is in his district, the Fightin' 14th. And, of course, Paul lived in Surfside many years.
