There is a time and place for everything, and if Paul pulls crap to stink up the show in St. Paul

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.

His supporters are racist, truthers, dope heads and wackjobs....But that's OK, as long as they proclaim the banner of liberty. And in so doing elect Obama.

Of course he is "allowed" to hold his own rally anywhere he damn well pleases. And he should be afforded the same respect as the other moonbats who show up. He LOST and he has his panties in a bunch and wants to spoil the show because he did not win. RON PAUL NEEDS TO GROW UP. 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." Then they are no better than anyone who supports Odimbulb. We had the playoffs and they LOST. Now it's time to grow the hell up and make sure Obama doesn't win. 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.

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." Tough Sh*t. He still LOST. Crying and whining because the big bad media screwed him over is more befitting some San Francisco blissninny than a man who wants to be considered as a viable candidate to run the country. Life isn't always easy or fair. So regroup, and try again next time with a better plan. 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.

I'm not happy about the GOP either but I'm not going to go to St. Paul and wail like some idiot disenfranchised Emo because Thompson or Tancredo didn't win.

Ron Paul is a freakin’ nut, blaming America for 9/11...he’s strict Constitutionalism is fine but he’s a loon in his presentation of the issues.
