Paul's new ad

Presidential candidate Ron Paul has a new ad going up soon that highlights his support for Ronald Reagan in 1980 in contrast to Texas governor Perry's support for Al Gore's bid for the Democratic presidential nomination.
The Paul campaign confirms to CNN that they will spend six figures to run the commercial in Iowa and New Hampshire, the first two states to vote in the primary and caucus calendar, and that they'll email a web version of the ad out to a couple of million supporters.
Basically the ad shows that Paul , as a young politician, stood by Reagen as a leader despite all the opposition. While Perry chose Gore who was wanting to raise spending and raise taxes.
This shows that in politics absolutely everything you do and support will always be associated with your career. I believe that Paul is focusing on Perry because he feels he is the major threat as a potential candidate and is getting his campaigning in early.
