it has to
Nevada, huh?
Great. That will give him a chance to talk about the benefits of legalizing prostitution.
Huh?
It is a closed primary, only Republicans can vote so they aren’t focusing on it. They are focusing on open primary states.
Something else very disturbing I haven’t been able to confirm yet is this (take it for what it’s worth, not the best source)-

(not going to post as a thread until I find a better source or can confirm this).
Which means Paul knows he’s going lose, so he’s looking for as many delegates as possible to leverage them and cause trouble.
The guy is a passive-aggressive fascist.
Does this mean he’ll skip the Florida debates?
He’s skipping FLA so he can hang on to as much campaign money as he can. Reason being so he can live off the money after the election. He’ll say its for political stuff but we all know its a scam. Legal scam but a scam nonetheless....
LRon had a Baghdad Bob speech last night claiming victory even though he came in last.
Smart move on on Paul’s part. He got less than 4% of the Pub votes in the 2008 presidential primary.
Florida is a winner-take-all state. Even a close second gets you zero delegates. This is essentially a Romney-Gingrich match up. It’s a must win for Gingrich. If Romney loses, he still has Michigan, NV and Utah to count on.
Remember the straw poll held here where Paul was supposed to win easily, only to be trounced by Cain? If he cannot buy seats at open caucuses, his clout diminishes greatly. It is now clear he is out of money.
Will it help Gingrich? If there are any conservatives in the bunch, it is likely but most of Pauls supporters fall into the Libertarian bunch so who knows?
Yeah, I thought that was a weird sentence.
Yep, this is end game stuff for the Paul campaign.
He'll call for a big fundraising push, right before he throws in the towel.
Just stay in Uncle Ron through VIrginia. We want a Paul win in VA!
Only politician not taking/refusing Congressional pension. ( His devious manipulations by being consistent for decades knows know bounds.)
Skipping one of the most delegate rich states is a strategy??
Weird.
I would think it might help Gingrich. There are a lot of Ron Paul signs in my town, and if they can’t vote for Paul, they most likely aren’t going to switch to Romney and they sure won’t vote for Santorum. So I’d suspect that if they vote, they’ll vote for Gingrich. Of course, “if they vote” is the key phrase.
Didn’t Florida lose half its delegates because it decided to hold its primary early?
