you should rule out Ron Paul's chances of winning anything beyond his congressional seat Ray Send a noteboard - 02/02/2012 07:03:15 PM
Sorry I know the Paulbots work themselves into a frenzy ever election cycle but with the exception of of few disgruntled Obama supporters and a few pissed off tea party people his support hasn't grown. He suffers from the fundamental failing that his positions are out of sync with the majority of his party and no amount of internet spam is going to change that.

The paulbots need to get over the fantasy that he is losing because the media isn't paying attention to him. He is losing because not enough people support his beliefs and that is not very likely to change anytime soon. If it was going to change the banking crisis would have been the catalyst but even that failed.

Hell even his support among college kids would drop once it they were forced to notice he planned on cutting off their student loans.

For those still wondering why the Republicans need to nominate Romney..... Anonymous2000 - 29/01/2012 11:25:25 PM 993 Views

Assumptions are rarely a wise decision making method. *NM* LadyLorraine - 30/01/2012 04:21:23 AM 269 Views
In this case they're a pretty good measure. Tom - 30/01/2012 02:09:30 PM 533 Views
The general predictability of our voting process kind of bothers me LadyLorraine - 30/01/2012 02:21:58 PM 630 Views
It's much the same elsewhere - just not as obvious because there's no electoral college. Legolas - 30/01/2012 10:47:15 PM 652 Views
The French are doomed. Tom - 31/01/2012 12:32:46 AM 529 Views
And crazy. Did you see that Merkel is going to campaign in France for Sarkozy? Rebekah - 02/02/2012 12:02:55 AM 502 Views
I for one did not see that... surely that can't help his chances. Legolas - 02/02/2012 06:33:56 PM 502 Views
That is one of the problems with focusing so much attention and national and presidential politics Ray - 01/02/2012 05:21:25 PM 615 Views

What about Massachusetts? Great Lord of Chaos - 30/01/2012 03:55:46 PM 710 Views
If MA doesn't go to Obama, he may as well concede then and there. *NM* Legolas - 30/01/2012 04:26:37 PM 243 Views
I'm backing Romney currently but let me point out some stuff Isaac - 30/01/2012 12:18:41 AM 598 Views
Yeah, but if you looks at all of the other polls, this is pretty much in line..... Anonymous2000 - 30/01/2012 12:32:36 AM 504 Views

I do worry that the RINO hunters have done to much damage Ray - 02/02/2012 07:12:45 PM 532 Views
Traditionally vicious primaries don't do much damage Isaac - 02/02/2012 08:03:33 PM 545 Views
Rubio does seem like a winner, but I'd be interested to hear why you consider Christie a bad choice. Legolas - 02/02/2012 08:39:04 PM 519 Views
you have to ask what he brings to the table Ray - 02/02/2012 09:33:25 PM 555 Views
I don't think Christie could swing Jersey or will play as well on the national stage Isaac - 02/02/2012 10:36:02 PM 554 Views
Romney has the best chance of winning against Obama, but he's also the most like him. TaskmasterJack - 30/01/2012 12:20:26 AM 523 Views
It will be much better..... Anonymous2000 - 30/01/2012 12:34:46 AM 630 Views
Your abuse of the ellipsis is starting to irritate me. LadyLorraine - 30/01/2012 04:28:04 AM 857 Views
Instead of ..... , I can end each sentence with a or Anonymous2000 - 30/01/2012 01:05:51 PM 610 Views
or you can just end it with a period. The usual method for ending a sentence. LadyLorraine - 30/01/2012 02:18:35 PM 508 Views
you are already getting 50% of what you want under obama moondog - 30/01/2012 08:04:57 AM 635 Views
I would love to hear you give details about this "50%" from Obama,,,,, *NM* Anonymous2000 - 30/01/2012 01:04:25 PM 222 Views

I wouldn't rule out Paul's chances vs. Obama, either. Praziquantel - 02/02/2012 12:00:45 AM 755 Views
If Ron Paul is the republican nominee, he will be the next President. ranagrande - 02/02/2012 12:24:22 AM 597 Views
