This is not flippant. Paul runs 3rd party, Obama is president. Period. He will pull more from the fringe right than the fringe left. Let’s face it, they are more politically astute than we are. We split our vote all the time, so now we will nominate Romney and lose. WE never learn from our past mistakes. Newt is the one that can defeat Obama. Unless Paul runs a third party, then we are screwed. Been watching this for 60 years. Bank on it.
Except African-Americans, Hispanics (60+% or so) and White Guilters, Democrats are looking for a reason NOT to vote for Obama. Blue collar Dems, those who made up the Reagan Democrats will vote for AbO. Some will go with a 3rd party Paul but a significant would go with the Republican, a conservative Republican.
Any third party run would be closer to Anderson ‘80, than Perot ‘92.
No, not flippant, just delusional as to the political leanings of Paultards.
Paultards are, almost to a man hedonists who want a life without responsibility or consequence and as correctly pointed out they vote left.
Newt is the one that can defeat Obama. Unless Paul runs a third party, then we are screwed.

I fear a 3rd Party run by Trump more than I fear a 3rd Party run by Paul.
