I mean cerially!!! Who wears FAKE EYEBROWS???
But ... who will be Romney’s stalking horse?
Mitt Doesn’t need him any more.
It's true.
Practically all they talk about down at the methadone clinic.
“Yes, he “won” the popular vote in the Virgin Islands earlier this month, but all but one of the eight delegates in that race ended up choosing Team Romney.”
I’m no Ron Paul fan but this illustrates part of what is wrong with the system.
Where will his votes go? I really don’t see the Paulites choosing any of the three (really two) remaining candidates.
RuPaul stayed in the race last time around until mid-June. I figure he'll do the same this time, because there are still Paultard pockets that can be picked.
The title is misleading; this is speculation. “Ron Paul” and “will” should have been flipped.
That said, I’m not sure I agree with this article’s premise. If he’s still going while being this far behind, why would he drop out?
Which raises question of how much of an idiot he was to drop out of the pre-Super Tuesday CNN debate. Why would a cash-strapped candidate sinking in the polls turn down the free media? Unless, of course, you believe he already has a deal with Romney and was giving him cover because Romney wanted to drop out. The debates have been a much better model for letting us get to know the candidates than the advertising. Ever since the debates stopped, the candidates with less money have sunk in the polls. Which means we’re stuck with a purely pay-to-play democracy.
Proving that Ron Paul supporters are very, very confused.

The article doesn’t support the conclusion in the headline not to mention that it is an incredibly poorly written piece.
RON PAUL 2016! WOOOOOOOOO!
More votes for Romney, the only other candidate on the GOP side close to their liberal ideas.
A lot of speculation. Paul wont drop out because he believes in his cause.
I guess Paul can’t deliver on his end of the deal to get Rand named as Romney’s Veep. If you don’t have enough delegates to put Romney over the top in the event he fails to get a majority before the convention, then you are of no use.
I’m sure this frustrates him. He LOVES being the turd in the punch bowl.
I believe Paul will stay in it to the end and amass as many delegates as he can. Truth is, if Romney does not win it outright, then it is likely that Paul will hold enough delegates to put either Romney, or the not-Romney camp over the top.
He will play that for as much influence as he can...and it is likely to be large because he will hold that key, IMHO, if Romney fails to get enough delegates or to win on the first ballot.

I hate sloppy reporting designed to force your reading...
Headline - “Ron Paul Will”
Story - “Will Ron Paul?”
Romney told Letterman that he had not begun to think about a list of possible of VP running mates, yet he has told GOP elite in several states that someone from their state was on the short list. Of course that was in the weeks just before the state caucus or election. In WA State, Romney said that a conservative woman congress representative was at the top of his short list. Then we heard that it was Rand Paul. I’m sure that some of you have also heard that someone from your state was under consideration, as well.
No, he won’t quit. He never had a chance to begin with, but when has that ever stopped the guy? He loves being a spoiler.
And that’s aside from the possibility that he made a deal with Romney to attack the other candidates but never Romney, if Romney would offer the VP slot to Rand Paul. We don’t know that for sure, but there was at least some evidence that it might be the case.
Dr. Paul;
Thank you for your years of service, all of the healthy babies you delivered, your steadfast support for pro-life, and your diligence in looking after the Federal Reserve.
Now, please exit, stage right.
