Is Ron Paul the 2008 Republican version of Howard Dean?

I'm not a Ron Paul supporter, I think he's dangerous because he has the kind of JFK/Barry Goldwater/Howard Dean aura about him that builds political movements. He's got a very savy net campaign going; scoring on YouTube, MySpace, and winning online polls (so much so that some right wing sites are taking him out of their polls). This seems to be attracting more mainstream attention. Is it going to be enough to break through, probably not, but he may be able to resurect the coalition of libertarians, evangelicals and anti-tax conservatives that brought the Republicans big success in the 80s.
