There is a time and place for everything, and if Paul pulls crap to stink up the show in St. Paul (which will be used to EVERY advantage by the Demoicrats and Media) then he is no better than them.

Seriously.

He had his shot and did not get anywhere the support needed to be a viable candidate, so Ron Paul should grow the hell up, take his ball and go home.

And his supporters, same deal. Anything like another Ross Perot that sticks us with a Clinton is on their shoulders, should this come down to the wire.

We’re going to have our hands full here with the anarchists and the hippies, we don’t have time for these clowns, too.

What crap? He's not allowed to host his own rally in the name of liberty? Paul has thousands of energetic supporters I think you should stop denigrating these folks because they're the deal-breaker if McCain wants to win the WH he's not allowed to appreciate their efforts and pay them back somehow?

Seriously.

Dude, I'm serious too. His supporters are tenacious and they are not going to hold their noses for McCain or settle for GOP politics as usual.

He had his shot and did not get anywhere the support needed to be a viable candidate, so Ron Paul should grow the hell up, take his ball and go home.

He beat Rudy, Fred, Hunter, Tancredo - and McCain - in primary battles. He raised more money than all of them except for Romney last year - all of it from the grassroots. He actually won Louisiana if it weren't for dirty tricks by the GOP establishment. Paul did not receive fair media coverage, not even from FOX, and the GOP treated him like a leper. If the GOP can embrace out-and-out RINOs like pro-abortion Rudy, then surely they could have acknowledged someone with differentiating foreign policy views.

And his supporters, same deal. Anything like another Ross Perot that sticks us with a Clinton is on their shoulders, should this come down to the wire.

Utter horsefeces. You assume that these people were going to vote for McCain to begin with. They're weren't and they're not going to. If Paul hadn't ran, they would have stayed home or voted their usual 3rd party candidate. Now I'll probably vote for McNut depending on who his VP is, but the GOP needs to listen to Paul and attract his supporters.

Anyone who sticks us with liberal rather than Paul is a traitor. Are you going to support a liberal?

I'm sorry, but I have a really hard time feeling bad about the sensitivities of the tools who would attend a McCain convention being offended.
