RON PAUL LESS THAN GRACIOUS CANDIDATE…

RON PAUL TELLS REPORTER TO KISS OFF

Not only rude to a reporter but sources say his volunteers have been told to shave, clean up and don’t tweet…be ###

National Journal reporter Beth Reinhard got a chilly reception from Republican frontrunner Ron Paul, when she ran into him eating his breakfast all alone at the Des Moines Embassy Suites. Reinhard asked the unaccompanied candidate whether his supporters would support the eventual nominee if it wasn't him, which drew a sharp retort.

"Right now, the only thing that bothers me is people who don't respect my privacy enough to leave me alone for five minutes when I'm eating breakfast." Paul is reported to have responded. Reinhard reports the Republican hopeful coldly went back to reading his USA Today.
