He said no such thing. Please find the link. He has stated several times, most recently during an interview with CBS, that he has no plans for a 3rd party run.

"Paul Leaves Third Party Door Open An Inch

During an MSNBC interview Wednesday, Rep. Ron Paul was asked if he would run for president as a third-party candidate. Paul replied, "No, I don't plan to run in a third party. That's not my goal. But if we have a candidate that loves the war and loves the neocon position of promoting--" Interviewer Norah O'Donnell cut Paul off at that point, and did not return to the topic during the rest of the interview." http://politicalinsider.com/2007/10/paul_does_not.html

PS: really bad reporting job by Norah O'Donnell. How could she cut him off right then. What an idiot

"But if we have a candidate that loves the war and loves the neocon position of promoting..."

Then that means he won't endorse the nominee, not run as a 3rd party candidate. Check out the post-debate interview with Hannity - he said endorsing the nominee (if they continued the war) would "undo everything he has believed in for 30 years." He also told Hannity he wouldn't run 3rd party, and he has personally told his wife of 50 years that he will not run as a 3rd party or independent candidate. It ain't happening, forget it.

Proof? I don't disagree that democrats and independents like yourself who have "disadain" for republicans will likely try to hijack primaries in smaller states.

There is no hijacking. Paul is one of two candidate who can get independent and swing voters over to the GOP.

But please provide some proof that this is happening since you seem so sure that it is.
