I officially predict Ron Paul wont' win a fucking thing
7even:
^Why are you so sure that he would take away significantly more Republican votes, when running as an independent? I'm sure a lot of "democrats" are going to vote for him, too.
Btw how's that Giuliani bastard doing, ain't nobody talking bout him?

He comes up with these 'pork barrel' projects for his district in texas, and introduces them into the budget, or as bills, or whatever. Many, Many times asking for money for whatever project he's harping on this week... then the neat little thing he does is, he votes *against* the bill or budget whenever it comes up for vote.
Now, what's the purpose of that? The purpose of that is he gets to have his cake and eat it too. He can tell people he has never voted to raise taxes, he has never voted for a special interest bill, blah blah blah... but yet he's the one who introduced many of them, and they go through anyways with or without his vote. It's really pretty hilarious... and it's kind of morally wrong.
Ron Paul is not the savior. Ron Paul is a libertarian. Libertarians can't win anything... so he runs as a Republican. If he loses this primary, which he will... he won't run as an independent or a libertarian, because he wasn't able to get elected to congress as a libertarian in the first place! That's the only reason he's in the republican primary. This is all much to do about nothing.

Wrong again as usual. I'm getting tired of debunking your wack ass posts so do us a favor and speak on shit you halfway comprehend - Nintendo games.
When congress gets together and comes up with various budgets, say $500 Billion allocated to various projects and municipalities across the country. Ron vetoes, stating it is entirely too much money. Well, Ron is grossly outnumbered and the decision is final - There will be $500 Billion allocated. The next question is - Where? Well guess what, if the question is no longer "how much" but "where", Ron is going to step up and fight for his constituents to get their tax dollars back. Can your feeble mind grasp that concept or do I need to go below a 5th grader comprehension level for you?
Ron ran as a Libertarian in 1988. That's the extent of his party affiliation. He has been in the House as a Republican for 20 straight years, keeping his seat while many Repubs were ousted. Reagan endorsed Ron Paul numerous times.
Paul's current platform of small governement, non-interventionist foreign policy, and decreased spending is the EXACT forum Bush ran under in 2000. The difference being that your idol, George Bush is a corporate lobbyist whore and he lied his way to the top. Paul isn't going to do that.
And again, you're a giant gaping pussy because you support the person who you perceive has the best chance to win. You have no opinion or independant thought, you let a faceless mindless majority dictate your thought process. I feel sorry for your mother.
And I thought you picked winners dipshit? In case you didn't notice, Obama fucked Hillary up in Iowa and he's set to do it again in New Hampshire. I mean, even when you try to pick the person that you think everyone else is gonna pick, you lose. Which further emphasizes my earlier statement that I'd bet you lose regularly in life.

Paul got about 3x as many votes as Rudy in Iowa, which is amazing because the neocons there love the idea of killing muslims. Have you seen his new campaign ad? It's probably the most disgusting thing I've seen in a long time.
Teddy Roosevelt:
If Paul doesn't finish 4th or better in NH, his campaign is over.

I saw his ad and it was one of the most fucked up things I have ever seen in a while. Like I said before if you think Bush is a war monger. Rudy will make him look like a peace loving hippie. Rudy is evil. Life long New Yorkers know the deal with him. They know he will be worse then Bush.
