RP is going all the way to the republican convention as a republican. Third party candidates never win nomination. This is because they go “start to finish” as a third party candidate. If he goes all the way to the convention and loses to Romney as a republican candidate, he will than sign on as a third party candidate. RP and all his supporters are not going to roll over and vote for Romney if he wins. Not only will the Republican Party lose a boat load of their base to RP, but RP will also gain the independent voters and most of the Obama voters who will not vote for a republican, but would be will willing to vote for someone else. Most of my liberal friends have told me that they would vote for RP, just as long as he doesn’t stay on as a republican.

If RP was smart, he would let Romney win and then sign on as a third party candidate. Am I the only one who sees the logic in this?


And this will divide the Anti-Obama forces, ensuring Obama will win. Why aren't the Paulites able to see this?

Oh that's right, many of the Paulites voted for Obama in the first place. And they will return to Obama when Ron Paul does NOT get the GOP nomination. Like that makes any sense. Ron Paul & Obama are on opposite ends of the spectrum: Libertarian vs. "Big Government" totalitarian socialism.

Camp Obama is cheering -- the Paulites guarantee Obama's re-election.

There is NO WAY Ron Paul can carry the nation, either as a GOP candidate or as a Third Party candidate.

There is an important difference between Romney & Obama:

The Republicans may be NWO, but they want to maintain US hegemony. That means "buying time" for the US citizen, by delaying the inevitable collapse of our oil-based civilization.

Obama is totally NWO, ready to surrender US sovereignty to the UN "One World Federation" -- towards that aim he will multiply US debt intentionally to collapse the US Dollar and fundamentally change the US into a Third World country. Obama doesn't give a flying fig what happens to the US or its citizens. Obama is all about Obama.

It's amazing to me that a decision can be made like that based off made up boundaries.

Do you like the guy or not? Do his values resinate with you?

Why are we over complicating this?
I don’t mean to jump in. I do like everything about him, and I would vote for him no matter what party he was in. Unfortunately, there are many out there who will NOT vote for a republican, BUT if there was someone in the middle? That would change everything. RP needs every vote he can get…

Because symbols stand for something. You may have missed the post where I admitted to being a recovering Republican, and was one for 30 years. I'll never vote for another one of those lyin' slimeballs. They left us high and dry, and I'll not ally myself with someone who allies themselves with a party that sold their people out at that magnitude.

I don't dislike Paul. Most of his values resonate with me, although not all of them, but when I'm done, I'm done. Just ask my ex... or ask the Republicans. I don't date my ex, and I don't vote for Republicans. I've never voted for a Democrat, and I'll not vote for a Republican as long as that Party embraces the same values. As long as they've not purged the neoCons, LibCons, or whatever Cons, they're not mine any more.

That leaves my field pretty narrow.

You talk like you think Romney is the "anti-Obama". He's not. he's the "alternate Obama". I'm not seeing many "anti-Obama forces" around, just "alternate Obamas". Pick your poison, but either way you're dead after you drink it.

This:

just means you'd prefer being tortured before being killed. The end result is the same - the corpse just has more marks on it.

About the whole Republican convention thing....I have a very limited understanding of how it works currently. I looked a bit into some history and found this about Warren G Harding.

en.wikipedia.org...


Harding's supporters thought of him as the next McKinley. By the time the convention began, a Senate sub-committee had tallied the monies spent by the various candidates, with totals as follows: Wood — $1.8 million; Lowden — $414,000; Johnson — $194,000; and Harding — $114,000; the committed delegate count at the opening gavel was: Wood — 124; Johnson — 112; Lowden — 72; Harding — 39. Still, at the opening, less than one-half of the delegates were committed. No candidate was able to corral a majority after nine ballots. Republican Senators and other leaders, who were divided without a singular political boss, met in Room 404 of the Blackstone Hotel in Chicago and after a nightlong session, tentatively concluded Harding was the best possible compromise candidate.


Harding was last in terms of delegates, but he still came to be the 29th President of the United States.

It seems to me.....anything is possible at the moment

Tricky tricky! Alas they can't deny the obvious. The people have a voice is not that of the media darling Mitt. Obama blew it and now we need to hit the rest button. Reset meaning loose the frauds/fascism/fallacy. I believe Paul is not the answer but a step in the right direction. We all have a voice, make sure yours is not stifled.

Paul wont be the nominee and there's a 90% chance he'll endorse Romney.

Actually it is you who has no idea how this process works. The masses can't dictate to the minority, that's exactly how it is supposed to work and why grass roots is vital.

This is how a republic works, because you're ignorant doesn't make it stealing or cheating.

Ron Paul supporters will NEVER support Mitt Romney. This Ron Paul supporter will never support Mitt Romney or Obama. I'd go third party first!

No doubt many Paul supporters will be defacto Obama voters.

If Ron Paul supports Romney then he has just destroyed his base.

Here's a video from the Maine convention. A Romney party member was trying to circulate false delegate candidates to try and split the votes for Ron Paul approved delegates. They confront the guy and he runs for the police for protection like a true coward.

It's pretty sick the level of deception that the Romney campaign lowers itself too.

I have to ask "What Romney supporters?"... I have yet to meet anyone who supports
him. All I run across are idiots who believe Marx/Lenin/Stalin/Hitler/Soetero/Obama... is the savior
of the nation.. and Ron Paul supporters..
Everyone else is still looking for the anti-Romney..

Sorry, but this is ASB. Romney is the defacto nominee, especially now that Saintorum and Moon-Newt have pulled out. The Republican Party is holding its nose and going for the Romney Unit. I'd be amazed if there was any kind of surprise at the Convention.
