Last fall, Nick Egoroff entrenched himself in the local Republican machine when he became a member of the Orange County Republican Executive Committee. But according to OCREC chairman Lew Oliver, Egoroff didn't just want to be a member.

"Ron Paul's telling how he feels, and it shows in the way he's voted for the last 30 years. And I don't think the income tax is fair, and the war on drugs is retarded."
