Paul’s support is a mile wide and 1/16” deep. All this chatter is only meant to muck up the Republican primary process

I truly believe Paul is there simply to cover Romney's backside and assure Romney's win.

3rd party independent conservative run would be just dandy with me

3rd party assures an Obama victory. Man , I though people on FR had some common sense about politics

Paul is a viable alternative
No he’s not. He will NEVER be president , NEVER . His published pamphlets alone would sink him in 5 seconds and his out of control radical foreign policy is laughable to a vast majority of thinking people . Never happen and a waste of time thinking of it . 3rd party and Obama is in . Anyone with a basic knowledge of politics KNOWS that

The thread should end at your post since it is the correct call.

IDIOCY...ALL third party runs assure democrat victories...whether it is Looney Tunes Paul or Egomaniac Trump, the result is the same...a democrat victory...

Perot gave us Clinton who had only 41% of the vote.

But, Conservatives learned their lesson in ‘92. By voting for Perot, they gave us Bill and Hillary for life. They won’t make that mistake again.

Not if Mittens is given the GOP crown......I have seen some here state they would rather BO ruin the country than a faux-Republican.

>>There is NEVER a perfect time to run a 3rd party challenge<<

Well, that's where we disagree. I refuse to compromise my conservative principals to keep moderate left leaning republicans in power.

It is my view, those who vote election cycle after election cycle for the lesser of two evils or vote republican...because, well I'm republican are complicit in the march toward socialism. With all due respect of course.

If the republican party ceases to field conservative candidates, it is my responsibility to seek out the candidate that will likely support policy that will save this republic and defend the constitution as a mother with child.

Whether we arrive at a socialistic, liberty inhibiting, constitution usurping society quickly or at a slower pace, it's still socialism.

Folks do our nation no favors voting the party line at the expense of the republic.

The Commited leftists would vote for Obama.

The youth druggie constituence - would very likely go for Wrong Paul.

O’braindead has failed to deliver on the promised utopia, and the kids will abandon him.

Hope and change turned out to be living in their parent’s basement with no jobs in site, and Mom and Dad are making them do laundry and be home by ten at night. Who knew change meant you still have a curfew when you’re 23?

YEP , you are right my friend. This is THE most important American election ever. Obama must be defeated at all cost and voting for Paul certainly will not attain that goal.

The youth druggie constituency usually winds up watching tv election day and doesn’t vote at all.

This is not flippant.

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.

Position by position, Perot was more like Kucinich than Reagan, and yet his persona won him an inordinate number of conservative votes.

I call bullshit.

Perot spent his own money to rescue Vietnam war prisoners.

Perot was for a balanced budget.

Perot's Company made money by selling IBM services to the Feds with medicare/medicade and the Blue Cross/Shield scam and so was a hypocrite about gummint spending but to say he was like kokospinach is just way off base.

Perot was no Reagan but dennis the menace is a communist through and through.

I am not for a 3rd party run this year due to the danger O-bozo presents.

I've not had an issue with 3rd party candidates in the past simply because the republican party has veered left.

Sorry if that touches your sensibilities. I don't vote the party line.

It's all about perception. I feel those who vote for left leaning RINO’s are complicit in the march toward an erosion of personal liberties and a socialistic society.

I will not be responsible for the destruction of this nation because I hold loyalty toward a party..not gonna happen.

Republican party better fix their candidates. Falls squarely on the party's shoulders.

Compassionate conservatism? Really? John “The Maverick for Change” McCain? Seriously? Mitt “used car salesman” Romney? are you kidding?

If this nation falls apart in part due to y’alls blind loyalty, it'll then fall squarely on the shoulders of those deceived by this corrupt two party mafia.

By the way, remember the HUGE sucking sound? Turns out Perot sent up the warning flag of things to come.

We've lost millions of good paying manufacturing position during the HUGE sucking sound.

Turns out, he was right. Problem is, there wasn't enough courageous Americans willing to step outta the boat to make a real difference at that time in history.

Step out of the boat and come on in for the big win...will ya!

Perot was a pro-abort
Perot was for a 50 cent additional gas tax ($1 today)
Perot showed no interest in reducing structural spending
Perot endorsed Clinton

The only third party candidate that would help the GOP is Hillary Clinton, and that won’t happen.
