The stylesheet is using a 'reset rule' to cancel out all spacing:

* { margin: 0; padding: 0; }

Space is added to the paragraphs in the middle column with this rule:

#primary .singlepage p {
    margin: 0 0 10px;
}

That explains the 'problem'; the solution is up to you. One option is to not 
clear all space on every element. Another would be to set a bottom margin on 
all paragraphs, overriding the reset. And another would be to target the 
paragraphs in the left-hand column explicitly, using an appropriate selector.
