Isn't it great?
The leaders of the GOP KNOW they have a BIG problem trying to hold on to the party, so they sacrifice one of their own to try and prevent it.
They are about to take a torpedo in the hull of the GOP ship in November.
Never stop, and, in time WE ARE THE PARTY.
Just shows how Barr is part
Just shows how Barr is part of trying to diffuse the take over of the GOP. Nothing more, nothing less. Leave already troll. Flagged for Barr Spam.
yes, and everything's a
yes, and everything's a conspiracy. Your pets are wired to listen to you. They're spies for the government. They're collecting information so they can mass kill you.
Trust Ron
If there is anyone that knows what he's doing it's Ron Paul. He's taking the Republican course for a reason. We are making headway and need to take back the party. We can only do it if we aren't divided. I agree with the NeoConned that the timing is suspicious. It would obviously be a disaster for the headway we are making in the GOP to jump on the Libertarian ticket. We need the scumbags that are in power out of power. The Libertarians aren't the enemy.
Let's see ...
North American Union - conspiracy?
Amero - conspiracy?
CFR - conspiracy?
Trilateral Commission - conspiracy?
New World Order - conspiracy?
One World Government - conspiracy?
Gulf of Tonkin - conspiracy?
Report From Iron Mountain - conspiracy?
Media Black-out of Ron Paul - conspiracy?
One might want to keep an open mind, before using the word "conspiracy" in a derogatory manner toward another. Your world is about to crumble ... intentional economic collapse of the U.S. economy. Hmmm ... conspiracy?
What really should have happened today
is that every single state should have said our entire delegate count goes to Ron Paul if he will accept it. If not then we allocate them ____.
If the LP had any intelligence, today would have been a begging of Ron Paul to take the nomination.
just a reminder

Of what? Indecision? Opportunism?

If Ron Paul does eventually
If Ron Paul does eventually decide to run for President outside of the Republican Party I would hope that the Libertarian Party chooses to rally behind him. Even better would be if both the Libertarian Party as well as The Constitution Party rally behind him. Both parties have a great deal of support for RP.
For your information, Ron
For your information, Ron was intereviewd on "Talk of the Nation" on NPR. His direct answer to the question "Here's an e-mail question from Kurt in Renton, Washington, '"Yes" or "No", or nothing in-between please, is representative Paul going to run for president in the general election?"
His direct answer was, "No."
Go listen to the NPR 5-14-08 podcast if anyone here has trouble understanding this.
And since Ron passed on the
And since Ron passed on the motion, Bob took it.
