Paul does not have a serious chance at the Republican nomination and if he wants to get a serious airing for his views in 2012 it's probably going to have to come as an independent candidate in the general election."<br /><br />LOL, Ron Paul has said on many occasions that he will not run as an independent. If he runs, he will run hard. His grassroots will propel him to the top. He will win the Ames straw poll, Iowa Caucuses, and many other states. He will raise tens of millions of dollars before anyone else begins to think about winning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-10579948217196491662010-09-10T10:07:18.349-05:002010-09-10T10:07:18.349-05:00"Paul does not have a serious chance at the R..."Paul does not have a serious chance at the Republican nomination and if he wants to get a serious airing for his views in 2012 it's probably going to have to come as an independent candidate in the general election."<br /><br />Except that throughout the campaign last time, he gained massive support due to the large fundraising and enthusiastic campaigning by the grassroots. <br /><br />The same thing could happen this time, and he is helped by straw polls and caucuses where the depth of his support (as opposed to the width) can shine through.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-3594725226679129712010-09-10T06:54:49.703-05:002010-09-10T06:54:49.703-05:00When was the last time the Texas Republican primar...When was the last time the Texas Republican primary made or broke a presidential campaign?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-21174253900103894972010-09-10T00:22:57.412-05:002010-09-10T00:22:57.412-05:00There must be a lot of good old boy fornicators in...There must be a lot of good old boy fornicators in Texas to propell Gingrich to the top of the GOP list.woodtickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02396106785699108800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-6778052558721439272010-09-09T18:05:55.285-05:002010-09-09T18:05:55.285-05:00While Romney is still the frontrunner in my rough ...While Romney is still the frontrunner in my rough 2012 Republican National Convention delegate estimate, Gingrich recently overtook Huckabee for second place.<br /><br />If I was an advisor to Gingrich, my advice to him would be to run.The Interesting Timeshttp://the-futurologist.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
