Ron Paul announced Monday that his campaign will no longer spend money on presidential nominating contests due to lack of funds, effectively ending his campaign for the Republican nomination.

This is a shocker! Now, I suppose I will just have to leave the presidential spot blank.
There’s still no way I will vote for willard.
Maybe Sarah will step in and take Ron Paul’s place/wishful thinking......
Could Ron Paul actually get the delegates to seriously challenge Romney?
Most folks don’t seem to think so, but, who knows? Paul managed to pick off most of the Republican delegation from my home state, which is Iowa. They did the same thing in various other states as well.
Sore loser.
You have missed the entire point of Ron Paul’s Primary Campaign: 1.) FORCE THE GOP TO HAVE AN OPEN CONVENTION; 2.) Allow the Delegates to vote for a dark horse who did not run in the Primary, such as Col. West of Florida.
___________
If Paul’s plan to cut 1 TRILLION dollars in year-to-year Federal spending, AND abolish 5 Federal Departments are the main reasons for Iowa Delegates to thaw out their opposition to Paul, then it might later be said that “as Iowa goes, so goes the Nation.”
BTW, “T” is for Texas, Tampa and those of us who are TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY!”
_____________
Here are some more reasons to vote for Ron Paul in the remaining Primary elections:
1.) It will drive the Liberal Agenda Media (LAM) and their Rove-style political consultants NUTS!
2.) It will deny statistical support to Romney.
3.) It could result in an OPEN Convention in Tampa.
4.) It would irritate the snot out of the GOP-E.
5.) It will put the GOP-E on notice that we think that their RINO Party has done NOTHING since we sent 89 TEA Party men and women to the US Congress in 2010.
6.) An OPEN Convention is our ONLY chance of a successful DUMP ROMNEY campaign.
7.) A superb, true “Dark Horse” Republican Nominee needs an OPEN Convention to replace Romney.
BTW, did I mention the sheer joy of watching the GOP-Endorsers publicly eating crow?

What the Liberal Agenda Media has never figured out, is that the 2012 National Election will be the last National Election where Campaign topics other than the National Debt will be debated again.
IOW, when the grim reaper of financial reality forces Federal Politicians in “both” parties to pay the US Bond owners before payments to our Entitlement recipients, it will terminate discussion on the main topics that we chatter about so far in 2012.
This National election is all about the money, your grandchildren’s descendant’s money.
Ron Paul is to old and to disliked as being different from what most voters picture a US President to look and sound like to win the Nomination.
HOWEVER, Ron Paul as an Anbody-but-Romney candidate in Tampa is our last, best chance to have an OPEN Convention in Tampa, and for that alone he deserves our Primary voter support.
Paul has soldiered on through this entire Primary Campaign. Let us help him establish a beachhead on the Shores of Tampa!
A “Dump Romney” action requires an OPEN Convention.
For those who object to Paul as a Nominee, then treat him as a tired old political soldier who will, with our help, win the Battle to achieve an OPEN Convention in Tampa.
THEN the delegates can win the War, and choose the best Nominee to solve our National Debt Problem.
Remember, this election is all about the money, your grandchildren’s descendant’s money - - - - .
What is the best way that you can use your Primary vote to help the financial future of YOUR descendants?
My goal is to defeat the insanity of Keyensian Economics in “both” of our very sorry political parties THIS YEAR!
This can be accomplished by choosing a stellar Dark Horse Nominee, such as R-Rep. West of Florida, to slaughter Obama in a November Landslide.
The key is to FORCE the GOP-E to allow for an OPEN Convention in Tampa. Without an OPEN Convention the SOS of INSANE Federal Spending will keep America on the same crowded track with Greece, and Kalifornia.
There are over 15, 000, 000, 000, 000 reasons why spending more money this year than was taken in during the previous year is an INSANE path to financial destruction.
Neither Obama or Romney have presented a plan to spend our Federal dollars in a non-insane manner.
For example, the GOP Elite have stood in line to endorse Romney, endorse “The Ryan Budget,” and compromise-away every opportunity to reduce Federal Spending.
I included the Ryan Budget, because Rep. Paul Ryan himself says that his “Budget” will balance in 30 YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, I added those exclamation points, because both you and I know that Ryan’s budget will NEVER balance, and thus never be a fact. The exclamation points are just for volume emphasis.
West makes exceptions on abortion, plus he supported raising the debt ceiling two and one half trillion dollars. He also voted one hundred million dollars for Obama’s school medical clinics. So, from where I stand, he’s not the answer to anything.
The key to getting the budget under control is a return to spending only within the Enumerated Powers. The next step is to do a thorough examination of those things that are constitutional, and to raise up leaders with the courage and will to rework those as well.
A president who made the veto pen smoke wouldn’t hurt in the effort either.
It is immoral to spend money that our own generation cannot repay. It is to rob our posterity of their God-given, unalienable right to government by consent.
But you, EternalVigilance, aka Tom Hoefling, "running for President" as the nominee from "America's Party," ARE the answer, aren't you?
LOL!
In your own mind, you're a more acceptable candidate than Sarah Palin, Allen West, Newt Gingrich and Ronald Reagan, who made exceptions on abortion during his tenure as Governor of California.
You're a megalomaniac fraud.
” - - - You’re a megalomaniac fraud. - - - “
Your point of argument is duly noted.
BTW, considering the source, I will take your observation as a compliment.
Have a nice day.
I was posting to EternalVigilance, aka Tom Hoefling.
Nope. You posted to me also. Compliment stands.
