If Paul doesn't get the nomination, what do his supporters do?
Vote for Obama?
Vote for the Republican?
Don't vote at all?
Write in Paul? (Even though some states don't allow write-ins on presidential ballots.)

Dear Blueracer,
Thanks for the answer, mind another question? You mention that voting for Paul if he's not running is a wasted vote. What do you see would be accomplished by voting for a third party? Would that party happen to be Libertarian? (None of my business, never mind.)
Somewhere I got the impression that if Paul didn't exist, those who are his followers would probably have gone Republican. If that's true, (and it may not be) why not vote for the Republican guy?
With respect,

For the last time, I'm not getting paid ANYTHING to post. I am a member of this forum and I have a dissenting opinion.

I think you just outed yourself.

Looks like the same ol' paid cast of characters has once again decended on a Ron Paul thread and done so all within the first few posts. Damn they're quick. Never ceases to amaze me.
You guys really aren't getting paid enough.
I'll give you this though, you ARE consistant and good at what you do!

Dear MsAphrodite,
Sorry, I'm still confused. You're replying to me and saying:
Are you calling me a professional? A professional what? Shill? Why do you think I'm a professional shill?
Another tactic used by the professionals.
When someone calls you out directly, have others pile on to question the questioner... next.
I'm happy to be entirely open and will answer any of your questions, I don't intend to dodge.
My opinion on the OP is that Judge Napolitano would make the Paul supporters even more excited and dedicated, but it would not pick up as many additional votes as another VP might have.
With respect,

You claim that Ron Paul cannot possibly win against Obama. Then why are you here? Why are you compelled to involve yourself in every single Ron Paul thread?
You claim that you are not a paid shill. Explain your need to be here or we all call your bluff.
I'm waiting....
I was just cruising by and saw this in your post. I must be misunderstanding you. We need to explain why we're posting? How about "It's fun?" Maybe "I like getting into discussions with people who disagree with me?"
If I can't explain to your satisfaction why I'm posting, then I'm a shill? I really don't understand.
I hope you understand now that when I said "we," I meant any ATS poster. And no, I didn't know the person I quoted is a troll. I still don't for that matter, I suppose I have to take your word for it.
You said "We need to explain why we're posting" then went on to say its "fun"

Now we just need to wake Jesse Ventura up and we're good.
