As Paul's White House campaign fades, supporters face choices

Well, Meth is cheaper than Crack and easier to manufacture, from a raw materials standpoint.

I'd say the choice is clear.

Paul Tards don’t care about winning. That’s why Losertarians is an great name for their twisted ideology.

Serious question, no snark intended in any direction: why, as the article states, would Paul supporters favor Romney over Gingrich or Santorum?

Has to do with principle, I think i heard someone say...
*********************

...And yet, if you ask what have we [the Republican Party] done, I think we’ve lost our way completely. Our rhetoric is still pretty good, but when we get in charge we expand the government… So if it means limited government, you have to ask the basic question: ‘What should the role of government be?’ “

“The Founders asked that question, had a revolution and wrote a constitution. And they said the role of government ought to be to protect liberty. It’s not to be a welfare state and it’s not to be the policemen of the world. How can you be ‘conservative’ and cut food stamps, but you won’t cut spending overseas? There’s not a nickel or a penny that anybody will cut on the ‘conservative’ side on overseas spending. We don’t have the money – and they are willing to start world wars.”

“So I say that if you’re conservative you want small government across the board – especially in personal liberty. What’s wrong with having the government out of our personal lives? We have to decide what ‘conservative’ means, what ‘limited government’ means – and I have a simple suggestion. We have a pretty good guide. And if we follow the Constitution, government would be very small and we’d all be devoted conservatives.”

As Dr. Paul lectured the big-government candidates on what a conservative truly is, Santorum, Romney and Gingrich could only stand in silence. What remains to be seen is whether or not the Republican Party actually still possesses a true conservative base – or if the base has actually shifted far to the left while preferring to wear the conservative label.

I think the jist of this article is wishful thinking by rooters. Paul has virtually no common ground with Romney.

" the Texas congressman's White House bid is fading badly. "

The Massachussetts Governor's White House bid is fading faster. Rombama is behind double digits in two current polls (per Fox News earlier today), and his unfavorable rating is skyrocketing- Romney vs Obama projection is that Obama wins FL, OH, and IIRC PA. Romney supporters are deserting faster than customers in a broke bank. What now, GOP-e, since all front runners have been de-throned?

Nazi Paul-tards are at it again....

What! WE DIDN’T WIN! THIS MEANS WAR! (Opps I forgot we are against war. Unless it is against Israel). But hey, how does this effect the drug laws? If Dr. Paul does not win, can I still, like, you know, smoke? The constitution don’t say a freakin’ thing about green-bud, man. (Or heroin). I am just like, exercising, like my constitutional rights, man! Dr. Paul, you da man! Don’t give up the ship! You like the only real man, man. If you do drop out, I am totally voting for Rand....
