However he has won polls in other states such as texas and idaho. also I am sure that Paul will campaign the whole time because of something he said "Im not just campaigning for presidency, but also to spread my ideas" (Paraphrasing, cant find exact quote) | ||

You are retarded and I'd be willing to make a significant financial bet with you that Paul won't win the nomination. That is how sure I am that he will not win. First of all, he came last in South Carolina. Secondly, the only reason he gets high percentages is when Democrats and Independents are allowed to vote. Thirdly, he tries explaining shit in the debates. AMURICANS don't like explanations - they like Patriotic/evangelical statements that don't require much thought. Paul would get more votes if he said: "I want to win back America for Jesus," than explaining the economic benefits of a zero percent tax rate. Thinking that Ron Paul will win the Republican nomination is like believing that the hot chick in your class is going to go out with you if only she could see what a special person you are when you're a fucking computer nerd.

Paul went all the way to the convention 4 years ago as well. See, this is the kind of ignorance I'm talking about. Ron Paul did not attend the Republican Convention four years ago because they didn't let him in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Republican_National_Convention | ||

IIRC South Carolina is extremely high in terms of religiosity for evangelical protestants which would pretty much destroy Romney's chances in the first place, even worse Romney completely bombed in the debate. So that leaves voters to chose in their eyes an isolationist coward (Ron Paul), or Rick Santorum who looked unremarkable in the debate. The only shocking part for me is how far back Santorum is. | ||

How is it good, especially when it comes to PR, to spend more and more money to try and wrap up a long winded primary. Super PAC's have been a monster even Republicans admit is out of control it won't look good if Romney and his Super PAC's spend over 100 million to win just the nomination. 17 million from his campaign, another 12 from his Super PAC. | ||
