Ron Paul knows that every vote that goes to a third party is a vote for Obama.
He wants Obama to lose.
Easy as that.

Why would he?
Seriously?
Why should he back anyone at this point?
Johnson is a social conservative- Paul is a fiscal conservative.
Some of their beliefs are the same- but not all. They are two starkly different individuals.
I like Ron Paul- I like Johnson too. I just wouldnt expect Paul to come out cheerleading for anyone else at this point.
The GOP treated him like dirt this entire election season. Im sure he could give a F by now.

Why doesn't that vote go to Romney? Why Obama only?

Ron Paul is not a Social Liberal. I dont know what you have been reading.
Fiscal(small government)conservatives are not social liberals.
Fiscal Conservatism and Social Liberalism are contradictory.

I'm not sure you understand what "Fiscal" and "Social" mean. They are mutually exclusive concepts.

Oh I know what they mean, and I still stand by my statement of Ron Paul being more Socially Conservative than socially liberal.
If you wanna get technical, hes a social moderate, because he believes in rec use for pot, but not too big of a fan of abortions.
Hes a traditionalist, but he doesnt care what you do in your own bedroom. Hes small government.
And I can agree that they are both fiscally conservative. Just not socially liberal. Johnson is, but not Paul.
Not IMO at least.
