I wonder if this is actually real, or if it could be Paul supporters trying to garner sympathy. On other sites, such as Reddit, they've been heavily pushing the "Ron Paul is being suppressed!" message, and a cyber attack would fit right in.

Lots of fairly new accounts are showing up on Reddit, too, and posting comments like "Ron Paul is America's only chance!" that get voted way up, and commentators who ask serious questions about Paul's proposed policies get voted way down, so it looks like the Paul Sock Puppet Army, 2012 Edition, has formed.

Ron Paul's extreme-right position definitely attracts its fair share of loons, but to write this off as a stunt by his supporters is a double-conspiracy sandwich. The Reddit crowd aren't the only ones who have noticed the apparent blackballing by the mainstream media. Jon Stewart did a bit on the topic the other night.

I would've thought the more controversial Republican candidates to be more likely to be attacked by hacktivists.
