He has NO chance of winning the nomination He has a great chance of being a spoiler. If he gets 10-20 percent in each primary that's 10-20 percent some other small gov. guy isn't going to get.

As I have said often, after Iowa, when Bachmann and Santorum drop out, there is really no place else for their supporters..primarily evangelicals..to go, EXCEPT to Perry.
Thus the NEW MATH: 7.4 + 11.2 + 4.9 + 23.5%
Rick be lookin' good..

No Republican should give Paul their precious vote.
No Republican would ever vote for the surrender monkey. The only people who will vote for him are the far leftists who want to see America's military destroyed and the pot heads who think he will legalize drugs.
Republicans do not hate America. Cut and Run and his band of surrender monkeys are the ones who do.

The problem with Ron Paul if he wins Iowa is it will create uncertainty going into NH and SC. I hate to think this way, but he paves the way for a Romney nomination. If Ron Paul wins Iowa, most likely Romney wins NH. By then, the recent rise of Gingrich and to a lesser degree, Perry, will be viewed as futile. These guys can't win it now. We better focus squarely on Romney. Voters will gravitate to the person with the "most" success coming out of Iowa, NH, and SC. That's gonna be Romney. He will finish somewhere between 2nd and 3rd (at the worst) in each of those states.
Ron Paul is going to ruin this for anyone supporting Gingrich or Perry. Or Bachmann or Santorum, for that matter. This is a huge problem and I'm afraid we'll look back at him being the main reason we failed. This is on the back of Iowans and I pray they will realize what they're about to do and shift their support.
See, this is where the "Iowa doesn't really matter that much" sentiment is a problem. If someone other than Paul or Romney had say 40% of the support in successive states, I'd feel a lot better.

I miss America too. Shes still there she just needs to come out of hiding. Tough to do when she's comatose and nearing death, though...
