I don't think so. It's my guess that he's been banned. Again. |

Ron Paul won 3 delegates in WV due to a deal with Huckabee.
Its so precious to see Ron Paul below 20% after all the ranting and raving about him on this forum. |

Remember, four Republican candidates remain in the race. That is, Ron Paul has averaged dead last in each and every race, with a few quirky exceptions.
Halleluhaj! Hallllll-lay-lu-ya! Hal-lay-ay-luh-ya...

| Maine is right: Ron Paul is the third best candidate. He's better than Huck! |

Well, I suppose this says that Republicans are still the party of war war war. Right, Gopher? The anti-war candidate has had his ass handed to him. Instead, yu'll get Mr. "100 years in Iraq" and the world will get 100 years of increased muslim terrorism.
Anyways, yes. Ding dong Paul is dead.
Here comes more war! |

McCain has been firmly anti-torture. That means a lot. Yes, he's a hawk, but he inspires confidence in his competence. |

No, no, no. Not yet. I want his withdrawal speech. I want him to say he quits. And I want to see him walk off the national stage and return to podunk Texas to his looney constituency. And I want him to stay there. Maybe educate himself on foreign affairs. Or whatever. |

Yeah, he seemed to know a lot about Economics. Though, however good he was in Economics he certainly lacked in Foreign Policy. I never understood his idea that anything that whenever something goes wrong in the world, it must be due to American interventionism. One can critique American policy without being so ameri-centric. Ron Paul could never get elected in a Republican primary with the rhetoric he spouts. What frustrates me the most about him is that he ignores other players while blaming everything on the U.S. |

Exactly.
Its not enough that you be simply anti-war, you have to show some semblence of being able to run a foreign policy. To call Ron Paul's grasp of modern history tenuous would be generous.
There are multiple paths, and many of the events are not in the control of the President. Ron Paul's criticisms didn't acknowledge this reality. |

If you keep talking that universalist, preachy, hippie nonsense and implying all that it implies about those who do not agree with you on Ron Paul, I am going to suggest to Kuros and Pluto that we burn you too. And you will have only thePeel to pull you out of the flames... |
