My only question is how does this strategy work with the primary states and the bound delegates? If we assume Paul wins the caucus delegates, what else? Is that enough to overtake Romney? Or just deny him the 1144 and snag victory in the brokered convention?

So I guess the Paulites are going to tell us Ron will win TX, his home state?

Would Paul be better than Romney?

The Republican Party makes one stupid decision after another. Ron Paul is a stealth candidate for the Democrats and Obama. He is endorsed by Code Pink. The Paulbots have one goal, to ensure Obama’s reelection.

The fact that the Republican Party let Ron Paul do this is one more way they are destroying themselves.

Ron Paul’s boosters who believe this stuff must be using something he wants to legalize prematurely.

I’m not enamoured with Ron Paul, but given a choise between Obama, Obama Lite (Romney) and the Tinfoil Hat Man, I’d vote for Paul in a heartbeat. If nothing else, it would shake up the RINOs and the Beltway GOP and give us a very interesting four years.

Ron Paul is shocking the political world.

I think it's more likely that the NY Jets will win last year's Super Bowl.

Further evidence the GOP is circling the drain... when a nutcase is seen as the “better” alternative to the presumed nominee..

I don’t buy it. Nothing in this adds up. It strikes me as the writing of someone who just can’t accept what’s happened.

I’d LOVE to be proven wrong.

Ron Paul has as much chance of winning the nomination as he does of sprouting wings and flying to Paris. And if his basement-dwelling supporters keep smoking that NorCal sinsemilla, they might well hallucinate such an event and spill bong water on their keyboards.

This story is one of the dumbest I’ve seen recently.

To anyone who just wasted a couple moments of their lives reading it as I just did, I’m sorry.

The nomination is not in doubt. Willard will be the nominee. Paul will be a footnote...again.

If the choice comes down to 4 years of isolationism, combined with an inward attitute toward individual freedom, versus hard core socialism (romney) or communist lite (fubo) then the choice becomes clear. I do not support or believe in isolationism, but it is far better than the alternatives... yeah, i would support ron paul...

I could vote for the crazy old coot. We could do worse.

If Romney fails to get the nomination on the first ballot, how likely is it that delegates will ultimately unite behind Gingrich and nominate him?

I couldn’t get past the headline and my first thought was that someone is smoking an illegal substance to come up with something this stupid.

Dude, dropping acid first thing on a Friday morning is no way to start the weekend.

There is NO WAY Ron Paul is coming out of the GOP convention as the nominee.

Ron Paul appears to be winning the Republican nomination for President.

I can't stop laughing every time this story is posted. If only this were original written on 420 it would make sense. Paultards are deranged and if they believe this crap, they should be kept far away from any job that requires the use of math.
