Briefly: some things to consider

(1) We haven't lost everything as some people are suggesting, but we also are unlikely to win the nomination. Let's not think in these black-and-white terms. We have revived the ideas of liberty and we will continue

(2) Dr. Paul's Congressional seat should be protected and retained. After all, he never could have run for President if not for his practical approach to getting elected as a Republican.

(3) There are still many achievable goals for November. There are some excellent candidates running for Congress who have a real legitimate shot at getting elected in the fall, like BJ Lawson in my district. The election of Ron Paul must not be the only metric to measure success of our movement. If we are so narrow in our vision, we will opportunities to broaden our base.

In summary: There is no reason to despair, but also we should be reasoned in our approach moving forward. We ought to continue to read and educate ourselves and others on monetary policy, foreign policy etc (Ron Paul supporters are the most savy when it comes to knowing policy and history).
