Dr. Ron Paul And His Shock Therapy When the blood starts to leave the mind...by Scott from Oregon

I have heard it oft-repeated recently, that Ron Paul is shocking the political punditry by how well he is doing among the common Americans who actually live and breathe here in America-- the so-called "We The People" part of the political equation. And my first thought on the whole shocking movement, is why?
Why shocking?
Why not some kind of tacit nod and an understanding that Americans-- after tolerating a "decider" and a bunch of dishonest rhetoric and a whole bunch of big spending with money taken from us by coercive force and/or borrowed from other nations and/or simply printed-- have simply had enough?
Why is that so shocking?
I looked up the symptoms for shocking at The Mayo Clinic’s Information Website, and this is how they describe a person in shock--
The skin is cool and clammy. It may appear pale or gray.
The pulse is weak and rapid. Breathing may be slow and shallow, or hyperventilation (rapid or deep breathing) may occur. Blood pressure is below normal.
The eyes lack luster and may seem to stare. Sometimes the pupils are dilated.
The person may be conscious or unconscious. If conscious, the person may feel faint or be very weak or confused. Shock sometimes causes a person to become overly excited and anxious.
After watching the punditry fizzle and sizzle on their pronouncements about Ron Paul, I think I see where the shock lies.
