Those two are easy to dismiss. Others who should withdraw will likely take more convincing. On the basis of today’s polling, Lindsay Graham is facing ultra-long odds.

Gosh, I don't know. They aren't going to Rand. Sanders is libertarian in a lot of ways. He's in tune with the out-of-control banking mess, which was one of RonPaul's biggest issues. I suspect a lot of Ron Paul supporters are looking for an outlier, but one who isn't a billionaire.
No, conservatives wouldn’t have nominated anyone we have had since Reagan.
But if the establishment had gotten their way, we wouldn’t have had Reagan either.
The difference is we now have some choices.
If they screw us and push Jeb on us, I will never vote republican again.

“Santorum, huckster, Paul....but the one I really want out NOW is Bush!”

Win, or lose, I’d like him around to opine the conservative message.
