I think your specific predictions are a little off. I think you answered your own question about why they haven’t gone after the anarchist thing…part of it is that any attention they give to Ron Paul would be good for him, and another part is the “he’s associated with anarchists” angle is probably one of the worst I can think of. They’d be better off going back to the 15 year old “racist” newsletters dead horse. But you’re also right in that the time is coming when they’re switching from ignoring and ridiculing to attacking. (And of course we all know what happens after that.)
As for the 9/11 and conspiracy theories, they already tried that 4 years ago. It didn’t go so well (for them, of course)…
