Say Good-Bye to Ron Paul


Business Insider reports on the bad news for Ron Paul fans.  I'm disappointed because the other guys are worse. It makes you wonder what the hell people are thinking. All three of the others say we should bomb Iran, for crying out loud.

The septuagenarian presidential candidate has based his campaign strategy on picking up delegates in the low-turnout caucus states, and was looking for his first win on Super Tuesday. His campaign's expectations were high going into yesterday's caucus contests in North Dakota, Idaho, and Alaska, three states well-known for their strong libertarian streaks. The candidate had also put in a surprising amount of campaign legwork in those target states this week, even traveling to Anchorage this week to rally voters in Alaska's tiny Republican nominating contest.

But the libertarian stalwart was frustrated on all three fronts. In North Dakota, Paul came in second behind Rick Santorum, despite rallying caucus-goers in Fargo on election night. The results were even more disappointing in Idaho, where Paul trailed behind Mitt Romney and Santorum. The race was closer in Alaska, but Paul still finished in third place.

    Ron Paul SEEMS better than the other three idiots. He's still a racist, he's still anti-wowman, he's still an economic illiterate. His "foreign policy" is pure head-in-the-sand isolationism.

    I'm cursious how much money he's got in his campaign warchest at this point. He had $25 million left after the last campaign, IIRC. If Paul would quit the GOP and go pure Batshiteaparty at least he'd be honest about his politics. He wants to take the USA back to the 50's--the 1850's.

    Poor Greg Camp, who's he got left, Mittunswillard the windsock, Sansscrotum the fundie or Newt the Philanderer. It's gotta be makin' him KKKrazze.

    1. Were you having tremors when you typed this? You toss out Ks as if you want to make an accusation, but aren't brave enough to do it outright.

    2. Greg, what you read from democulo is merely ignorance in action. Who thinks a man who hates women would become a baby doctor? Democulo might wanna actually watch Paul's committee on TV when he schools helicopter Ben. Paul being a racist would be like a jewish black guy, think Sammy Davis Jr., joining the KKK.
      Paraphrasing Murray Rothbard, being ignorant is one thing, but being so boisterous showing it off is something else. Or Mark Twain who said something similar that, if they hadn't opened their mouths, we wouldn't had known they were fools.
      Clearly, they were referring to our friend, democulo.

  2. I haven't heard the fat lady sing, yet. Surprising, considering all the intentional GOP establishment vote fraud that has and is occurring. That doesn't get much press in the 'establishment' media.
    How would you know if Paul actually won any of the caucus states?
    Consider this:

    Interestingly enough, if you follow the comments sections of the online media reports of the caucus results, you'll read comments like, "I was at the Ron Paul speech the day before the vote along with 1,500 other people, yet in our county he got 0 votes. How is this possible?"
    Regardless of what the article says, Ron Paul has said he will stay in the race until the end.
