I just cannot see how Paul and his wacky notions have any chance to get the GOP nomination and if he splits off for a 3rd party run, he cannot win.

Please explain how I am wrong without telling me I just have to believe?

Hey, the Constitution won a couple of centuries ago...there’s some possibility that America will reinstate it someday!

He has no chance of getting the GOP nomination. He’s going for a third party challenge and that’s why he’s still in the race: to raise money and get the free publicity before he walks out of the GOP.

“...if he splits off for a 3rd party run, he cannot win.”

That’s where I don’t entirely agree with you. He doesn’t have a good chance of winning. However, there is enough anger at both the existing major parties that a third party candidate may have a chance of launching a viable third party challenge. If the two candidates are Sen’s Clinton and McCain, their similarities will work against them.

A viable “conservative” third party would give the GOP some badly needed competition and would be a pretty nice consolation prize for this lemon of an election.

He's in the Final Four. Can't be all that wacky, right.
