Choosing a Republican candidate isn’t a done deal until the balloon drop.

If Romney doesn’t clinch the nomination on the first vote, it’s going to be a free-for-all.

In the 1920 Republican Convention, it took 16 votes for a candidate to be chosen - Warren Gamaliel Harding. His running mate was Calvin Coolidge. They were not anticipated to be the candidates but both men went on to make history.

It happened before, it can happen again!

Laughable. “Dr.” Paul is NOT going to be the GOP candidate for President, no matter how much 1933 Nazism you try (why do I feel a Reichstag fire is coming soon to your area?) He would get even less votes than Romney, if that is possible.

I, personally, will NOT vote for Romney. But if you think that I would even consider voting for a nutter like Ron Paul.... You are crazy. Most of the GOP (fortunately) feels the same. You (and your like) are not going to steal the convention. Get it out of your little herb stained brain. Not going to happen.

And if somehow “Dr.” Paul was on the GOP ticket you think the mainstream GOP would vote for him? No. We would stay home. Not vote for Obama. But stay home. Like a wackjob like “Dr.” Paul would be “better” than what we have now? A surrender monkey, 911 Alex Jones “truther”? Hey, this guy is going to get “all” the GOP vote....

It boggles the mind how shallow “Dr.” Paul supporters are. If he again chooses uber liberal “Dennis the Menace” as his VP, do you think the mainstream GOP will cheer? Romney is no Republican. “Dr.” Paul is not even Romney.

As I said, I, personally, will NOT vote for Romney. He is not a republican. But to think that Ron Paul is a republican is more than laughable. (Why is he not running as a Demo since that is where most of his support comes from?)

So you little Nazi’s make your move. First, you are not stealing the convention. And even if somehow you did, no mainstream GOP voter is going to vote for “Dr.” Paul in the general election anyway. Nobody in their right mind will willingly vote for a crazy person.

But I am sure you little Nazi’s are standing there with full gas cans, ready to light the torch. Go for it. It is NEVER going to get “Dr.” Paul (or Rand) even one step closer to the white house. DEAL WITH IT!
