postcards from Bay Ridge: Ron Paul or Bust?


For all intents and purposes, our notoriously Conservative-Republican stronghold of Kings County, Brooklyn is considered ‘Rudy Country.’

However, as New York Magazine’s Intelligencer asked back in December: ‘when did New York [more specifically, Bay Ridge] become Ron Paul Country?

According to New York Mag; “in July, when George Stephanopoulos told Paul that he would bet his “every cent” that he won’t be president. Suddenly, it seemed, Paul found an audience… his popularity has soared, and he’s amassed more MySpace friends, YouTube views, and MeetUp groups than the rest of the Republican field combined. His New York MeetUp group, with 957, is second only to Austin’s in membership.”

With voters in Bay Ridge embracing the plainspoken Constitutionalist, such as the owner of the Corrolla seen here, supporters aren’t simply content to wear their support for Paul on their sleeves’ – but also on their rears’.

Seen here with a medley of bumper stickers ranging from:
“Ron Paul ‘08, It’s 100% Constitutional”

“Ron Paul for President 2008″

Even including shock-jock O&As’: WOW(Whip ‘em Out Wednesday) bumper stickers.

Is this Bay Ridge Ron Paul supporter telling us it’s finally time to get the real boobs out of Washington, for a change?
