I didn't vote for Romney in the Primaries last go round, and neither did most Republicans, so I don't see how he's considered "most electable" four years later.
Ron Pual is not electable, period. He's too old, too libertarian, and except for Paulbots, nobody would vote for him.
Well, when we talk about electability, we’re talking about the ability to beat the Democrat in November 2012.
Electability is not the ability to win the Republican Primaries.
That would be Palin, the most able to win the Republican Primaries.
Ron Paul does appeal to a group of people - young males in particular - that other Republicans don’t appeal too.
Ron Paul would win Republican votes in November, and those young males.
The other Republicans wouldn’t be winning those young males.
Republicans might prefer a different candidate, but that other candidate wouldn’t appeal to those young males. That’s what makes Ron Paul more electable.
Just look at the polls, the polls show this.
