Romney: Oh, you’d better believe I’d vote for Ron Paul over Obama

Paul. Romney's stalking horse. Keep Newt from getting any momentum out of Iowa. Once that purpose is served, all bets are off...

The second tier candidates are inconsequential.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Not me. I’d vote for Barry Soetoro. If both of the candidates are going to legalize recreational drugs, I’m going to want a reason to be using them.

[Vigilanteman]

All Romney needs is a decent third-place finish or better behind Paul and one of the lightly funded social-con candidates like Bachmann or Santorum who pose no real threat to him nationally. He’s right on track.

Who says so?

[BenLurkin]

Don’t forget the internet murmuring suggesting that Paul will be Willard’s Veep.

Oh joy.

[BarnacleCenturion]

I think the murmuring is about Rand Paul, not Ron Paul.

[GunRunner]

Romney is winning his mind battle against Gingrich.

Can someone tell me why they pulled the Coulter thread on Romney? The reason was "flamewar", but is FreeRepublic no longer going to allow discussion of the Presidential primary?

[CainConservative]

Newt and Willard BOTH need a top three. And it’s VERY likely they’ll each get it.

Btw, Paul is irrelevant.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Not to worry.

He'll say the opposite next week.

[sam_paine]

I called that a while back. It seems that if Willard wins the primary, then JimRob is going to have to choose between shutting FR down or helping Obama.

Romney is not the best answer, but I'll vote for him if he really runs hard against Soetero....

I don't think we have a choice...I don't think our country will survive more of the obamanation....

we have to clean out the Senate and the House....had a good start last time but the Boehners of the world have got to go...

newt is screwing up bad. He never should’ve said he’d vot obama over paul. That was really dumb.

I don't recall him saying that... I just remember him saying he wouldn't vote for Paul...

Write-in or no vote are the alternatives...

[mamelukesabre]

ya you keep telling yourself that

the rest of us know exactly what he meant

[Rebelbase]

Right now FR is Kansas in 1860. If Paul wins the primary it’s gonna be a full fledged F’ing civil war.

Decidedly better than Romney winning.

[Figment]

Just one more reason not to vote for Romney under any circumstance

[Parley Baer]

“Just one more reason not to vote for Romney under any circumstance”

Exactly my thought. The man has no principles.

[servantboy777]

The connotation was that he'd never vote for Paul, so guess we could deduce that O-bozo would be his choice.

That was a pretty dumb thing to say.

[Recovering_Democrat]

I will vote for Ron Paul or Jon Huntsman or Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich or Michele Bachmann or Rick Santorum or Rick Perry or anyone on the Republican ticket over Hussein.

My reasoning is this: Hussein HATES America. For ALL of their various faults, NONE of the Republican candidates hate America. The very fact that they do not HATE America, while their opponent Hussein DOES hate America, will motivate me to vote.
