Funniest news I've seen in awhile. Don't you dreamers know that, aside from ego, the main reason very minor political figures like Paul file to run for president is that they can raise and KEEP money? True, there are rules for what they can use unspent campaign money for, but the rules are pretty generous.
Looks like Tancredo, Paul and Hunter are next year's Buchanan, Keyes and Bauer. They are going to be slicing and dicing "true" conservative contributions and primary votes, if they stay in the race until the primaries begin.
It's just hilarious that election after election there are folks who are totally taken by what is essentially a con.

Don't forget the crucial element...gullible people who will throw their money at them.

It's just hilarious that election after election there are folks who are totally taken by what is essentially a con. I would think a much, much bigger con is the 10 of millions of are persuaded to vote for candidates who don't really represent their views. If I vote for Paul, I will be voting for the guy I want to win. Every year, most people vote for someone who isn't really there preferred candidate, but is perhaps slightly better than the other one. Which is the bigger con? I will vote for the guy I best want to represent me. Can you say that? Were you able to say that in 1996 when Dole was the GOP candidate? No, my FRiend, it is not me who is being conned.
