The point is: on Super Tuesday it looks as if Mitt’s main rival, Not Romney (R-Anywhere) will win again as his negatives are adding up faster than his wins. Amidst his atrocious favorability rating, awkward personality and Richie Rich gaffs Romney as always just can’t connect. All the humanizing stories in the world can’t seem to animate this landed automaton. It looks as though Mitt Romney may need someone who can connect and in a way which will deny Barack Obama a progressive’s traditional advantage. Ron Paul’s liberal honey may provide this vital ingredient.

Has Reality Set In for Paulites Yet? What Will You Do??
Vote for Obama again. In a heart beat. GOP lost their chance to get some libs on their side when they threw their lot in with Mittens O'Bomney.

Well if you’re a lib you’d vote for Obama anyway, right?
I don’t know any libs who lean libertarian/constitutionalist.
Barry voters typically hate the constitution…it’s an obstacle!
Your forgetting one thing; Ron Paul would never accept an offer to run as Obamneys VP he has to much integrity to do that!
And if he did no I would not vote for the republican ticket because it is just a ploy to get the Ron Paul vote and Obamney would just continue the status quo so it matters not to me who wins that election. I suspect most Ron Paul supporters would feel similarly.
Let me translate this thread:
"Ron Paul supporters...Republicans have crapped all over you...but PLEASE PLEASE vote for Republicans...Obama is [insert perceived negative words]....you don't want to have him win again"
I fully expect most Ron Paul supporters to write in Ron Paul's name if he doesn't become an official third party candidate. For those that don't, I think they will split evenly down the middle to Dem and Rep.
But I find it funny for anyone to try to pander to them...we aren't talking about a large amount of votes.

Many (most) of the Paulites here on ATS are probably going to go Obama. That was their plan all along. Derail, defuse, impact the GOP primaries.
Conservative principles, real principles will determine who someone will vote for. Going from one end of the spectrum to another, well, just shows the political manipulations going on even here on ATS.

They will still vote for Ron Paul.
Republicans can either join in or Obama will end up the Pres.
It's really pretty simple, they are going to put their foot down and demand to be heard as this is their last real chance to have their voices matter. It's up to Republicans if they want to stick with establishment candidates, but since they insist on that, don't expect Ron Paul supporters to join in...it's not going to happen. Although some of the support would have been taken away from the Democrat establishment and Obama for Paul, however those votes will probably just go back to what they know and feel comfortable with.
People were trying to change the Republican Party, for themselves, because nobody in politics will listen to their voice.
Republicans insist on staying with the establishment, that has been working out? None of the Republican candidates have a chance against Obama except for Ron Paul because he could have stolen votes from Dems. None of those votes are going to go what the Republican party is putting out, they are the ones that are going to cost the Republicans not Paul.

Pretty predictable…I was hoping to sway a few and do my part.
You are a hardliner! Thanks for your Obama vote….mine will negate it!

Predictable.. Paul isn’t a conservative and neither is his (HAHAHA….BASE).
Thanks for the input!
By the way, what do you hope to gain from 4 more years of Obama that Paul would have given you??
