After FL there will only be 3 candidates left and one of them will be Ron Paul
Probably Romney and Mccain. Mccain is running on fumes and hard-core conservatives hate his ass. Romney still has about 130 million in the bank, so it's Romney and Paul money-wise. Romney is a change but can Romney take the southern states? Romney is not a true conservative Ron Paul will out debate him on the issues.
The next debate after the FL debate will be priceless. It appears to me the campaign is going into states that the other candidates can't because they can't afford it. The campaign is picking off delegates in the states the others can't touch (money wise). In a brokered convention this could be a big factor. It could bring a little sanity back to our policies. Is it me or are we doing better in the Caucus states?
Lets face it folks, the Republicans need a huge change or the Democrats are going to take them to the wood shed. People want change, for Republicans there is only one candidate and that is Ron Paul.
Oh, I agree.....the Democrats will whip the GOP
unless Paul is the nominee. The powers that be don't care wheather or not it's Hillary, or McCain. They are having fun thinning down the field! They can't stand Obama..he's got way too much baggage to be elected in a general election. They really don't like McCain, because he's too stupid-but they'll take him, because they know they can work with him. Rudy's toast....so is Huckabee. Ron Paul is the only wildcard in the deck. They will drive McCain to be the "obvious" GOP dude, making it look like Paul would be a suicide plunge for the GOP, when in reality, it's just the opposite. But go figure, when you control the money, and you control the airwaives.......America ain't going to wake up....check with the prophets.

I disagree with your comment
"Lets face it folks, the Republicans need a huge change or the Democrats are going to take them to the wood shed. People want change, for Republicans there is only one candidate and that is Ron Paul."
Dr. Paul is the only "change" of EITHER party!

Yes, but most people are "party handicapped". Primaries 1st

I disagree.
Debates are Huck's strong suit and he'd be nuts to leave before the Calif. debate, he did garner 30% in SC just a few days ago afterall. I say Rudy stays with anything above 13 or 14% in Fla for the same reasons. Play in the debates, don't worry about national ads, live in CA and New York (Rudy) and the bible belt (Huck).
I also think more the better with candidates until Feb 11th or so. Ron's not ready to gain 20% anywhere yet, and being the 3rd candidate as you suggest would just make him a John Edwards. -JP
The first 5 million supporters of Dr. Paul are 'early adopters.' The next 10 million will require a modified approach.
Huck?
What about Huck, he's got the 2nd most delegates so far. I know he's broke. He's getting less media coverage now. Despite McCain having the 3rd most delegates, he gets 90% of the media attention.
According to a report I saw on CNN a few months ago, McCain was mentioned on CNN over 18,000 times where Ron Paul was mentioned only 560 times. Fair and Balanced? Oh yeah.

Of course Dr. Paul will be one of them.
Did anyone just see the poll on MSNBC of Dems VS Republicans who would win. They didn't poll Dr. Paul.. Didn't mention Dr. Paul.
What a bunch of bungholes and lying sons of female dogs.
Rate the canidates
on msnbc. Ron Paul 51%
Caucus = Important Straw Poll
Me like straw polls.

They're dropping like flies
Guiliani will definitely be gone after finishing 3rd (maybe 4th?) in Florida. Huckabee will stay to win some southern delegates on Feb 5th. McCain and Romney will attack each other endlessly to win the Northeast and California. Dr. Paul will be the only truly national candidate and if he sticks to a positive message could attract conservatives disgusted with their other choices.
I think it's best to have Huckster around
until after Super Tuesday. Don't want to risk McCain getting those votes by default. Think about it...keep them divided. If Huck leaves, I believe he would endorse McCain for sure...not Romney being a Mormon or Dr. Paul for obvious reasons. So, keep him in there for now.
The other candidates really don't like Romney
Where do you think Romney's supporters would go if he drops out?
I think Romney's in for the long ride
but I think at least out west, many of his supporters could be coaxed our way.
