The Ron Paul Spamming of America

How do they do it?
Will it stop?
I have been watching C-Span's "Washington Journal" the last couple of days. It seems like every other call is a Ron Paul nutbag.....

More below the fold.....

Anyone of us that has been around the internets this primary season has undoubtedly run into the Ron Paul spam that permiates the comment sections of newspapers and Blogs like the HuffPo among others. That isn't the issue though...it's the callers on C-Span that are really pissing me off.
How do they do it?
Is there some sort of "network" that they use to coordinate and spam all of the call in shows? I don't get it.
I don't have to go into some of the absolutely insane "positions" he has in detail here, we are all familiar with some of them. If I here one more freakin time that he is "the only one that cares about the constitution" I think I will most certainly go mad. It is certainly obvious to me that they have some sort of coordination going on, because there is NO WAY that the realistic cross section of callers that are supporting Ron Freaking Paul is reflective of the true support base of the electorate. If it WAS reflective, we would most ceratainly be looking at a 86% landslide victory for Ron Paul in Iowa an the Republican side.
The purpose of this diary is more than just a rant. I truly am interested in how they are doing it if in fact it IS coordinated.

I am asking if anyone here has actually ventured into the land of the lost in Ron Paul world, and what you have found.

PS....It especially skeeves me out the way his zealots always refer to him as Doctor Paul.
