Very wonderful. I have a smile from ear to ear.

A little bit of advice. Stop being so dramatic. Reminds me of my 14 year old daughter.

We are 15 trillion in debt and they are prompting up another war. How is that being dramatic? That is being a realist.

Ill stop being dramatic when you stop being in denial.

PS im sure you are smiling since you will not be on the front lines in the next false based war...

Why do you think RP should have landslided this ? Polling data ?? LOL

You do know polling data is the oldest trick in the book right ? I said in another thread when everyone was soo happy that RP was winning in the polls " do not pay any attention to polls..go VOTE NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY "

I personally know voters that stayed home because " the polls " had over margionalized (sp) there choice.

I suggest to everyone .. Put blinders on when voting.

Matter of fact just turn off the TV or PC the day of the Voting Until you cast your ballot. If you have not voted yet, Don't turn on your TV.

RP isnt my heroe his ideas are..

So I guess the idea of following the constitution, auditing the out of control fed, putting diplomacy over war first
is a flop....

Im also sure your heroes who supported the bail outs are happy as well. Whats it like being thrilled about getting screwed over all the time by the people who are suppose to look out for the average American citizen?

Does it make you happy?

Nobody wins or looses in a caucus. You might want to amend your post.

Thing is, he has already won by getting the message to the masses, which is why they have to lie, deceive, and spew mass propaganda.

We live in a very corrupt world, and America is at the top of the list. We've already lost our freedom, and won't get it back without bloodshed.

Not winning Iowa is actually a good thing for Ron Paul.

Name any other republican that has won Iowa and then won the white house?
Not winning Iowa basically in theory means he is in second place
Iowa should show you that Romney isn't as electable as what the media has wanted you to believe

If you read the results, Paul had the majority of young voters. A deciding factor for Romney's landslide 8 vote margin was 'can the candidate beat the President.' Apparently, many voters do not believe Paul [and others] can beat Obama. Santorum is a definite possibility as he essentially tied Romney while spending far less. It looks as though blowhard Rick, crazy Michelle, and baggage-laden Newt [caught fibbing about who filed for divorce with wife #1] are on the downslope. Huntsman never made it to the starting line.
Romney may have the mainstream by default, especially now that McCain is said to be supporting him. Gingrich may support Santorum because of personal animosity with Romney. Paul may have some of his ideas added to the platform but don't expect anything that takes more from the rich; Eric Cantor's no-compromise philosophy will prevail as the Republicans further isolate themselves from, and anger, the American public.

Hate to break it to you. I don’t like war. I served for 4 years. It’s not fun.

No one likes war. With that said. Isolationism doesn’t work unless you are living in the 1700's. The world is a much smaller place. We have interests everywhere. Not to say we need to go to war, But that there are resources, countries and people that need to be protected for the protection of this country. The head in the sand method is not new. It doesn’t work, and to think, you actually think this is a new concept drawn up by Ron Paul.

The spending I agree with, but all the GOP candidates are vouching to take care of this issue in their own way.

Next, who is electable? Do you actually think he has a chance against Obama? LOL that is the funniest thing I’ve heard yet.

What has Ron Paul accomplished in his almost two decades in congress? NOTHING. Proving that he cannot negotiate. He doesn’t work well with others. And in the end result, promises much, and accomplishes little.



So yes. Im smiling from EAR TO EAR!

Romney spent very very very little time in Iowa. To win the state and not campaign in it shows just the opposite. He is very electable and will Kick Ron Paul back to Texas.


Nice try though

Which will happen sooner than anyone would like, given the direction this election cycle is headed.

I think it's quite obvious that the MSM has a hardon for mitt Romney, because he is a liberal. They know that a Romney presidency will ensure the status quo in case he wins, so they are putting him on a pedestal, for now.

But when it comes down to the final race between the GOP nominee and Obama, guess which side they'll take - again.

Yet another ignorant spouting off about "isolationism".

If you really knew anything about Ron Paul, you'd have a different viewpoint. But no, get your information from the talking heads on TV - they have your best interests in mind.

I'm not sure why people are suprised that Ron Paul lost. Voting and Primaries are an old person game. The youth clamors around idea of change and hates the modern day politics/society/structure yet does nothing about it. Personally I'm not a fan out any candidate nor the current president. But voting in the primaries requires just a tad bit more work than being registered to vote and voting, and I believe that's where Ron Paul supporters were flawed. While I support Ron Paul's views on isolationism and views on war I don't agree with his smaller government. Unfortunately we've gone too far for too long with big government. Regulations and social welfare still need to be in place, we can't trust corporations to "do the right thing". Plus no matter what his convictions are he still needs a house and senate that believes the same way he does or nothing really matters anyways.

The problem I find is that when a person surrounds themselves with people who think the exact same way that person begins to believe that EVERYONE thinks that way. Almost works the same way as mass hysteria.

On a last note though, I would rather RP get the republican candidacy.

I'm a history teacher. I get my talking points from these items called books!

Look into it. I hear they are a great source of information.


Don’t be so upset Paul lost. Now he can go back to congress and do more of nothing. Maybe get to co sponsor a bill and have it pass every decade or so.

They should have allowed online voting....it's the only way Ron Paul could have won.


When real Republicans show up to vote, Ron Paul doesn't have a chance.
