“That statement makes about as much sense as a Ron Paul speech on national security. The left wants Ron Paul to run so that, just like Ross Perot in ‘92 and ‘96, he can siphon off votes that would otherwise be cast for the Republican candidate, thereby facilitating the election of the former first co-dependent or B. Hussein Obomanation”

The argument the Paul-haters make is that his support is from the left primarily. In that case, he’s a 3rd party candidate who will work the dems.

The Paul won’t admit that the GOP’s wheels are off it’s tracks and with the GOP and RNC leadership we have now, and the top tier candidates, we ain’t winning anyway.

Why have all of Ron Paul’s ads in Pennsylvania been anti-Republican?

Well wait a minute. Aren't you capable of thinking on your own? Just because some poster says liberals will be the Ron Paul voters you accept that.

You quote one of my posts on this thread. Are your abilities to understand a simple paragraph so limited that you think my statement says that his support comes from the left when it clearly says that he will siphon off Republican votes?

Let's try this: You tell me what impact Ron Paul’s running as a third party candidate will have on the election, not what others have said. Will Ron Paul win? Will Ron Paul draw his support (votes, not financial) from libertarians and conservatives or liberals?

Paul haters

I don't hate Ron Paul. I just think voting for a guy who hangs with, helps and encourages Truthers has as much to do with conservatism and libertarianism as socialized medicine does.

I have not participated in very many Ron Paul threads over the last year. I have to admit I am very frustrated with this "Paul supporters are told his support comes from the left" routine that it seems is the extent of his supporters political analysis abilities. I have asked two of them a couple of very simple questions (below). I find it VERY interesting that they refuse to answer these questions. The only conclusion I can draw is that they hate their country as much as the liberals do, desire its destruction, and will gleefully participate in bringing it down.

To Ron Paul supporters: Now how about giving me YOUR perspective on these questions (as opposed to what other Freepers have said): Will Ron Paul win? Will Ron Paul draw his support (votes, not financial) from libertarians and conservatives or liberals?
