    Either way....because of Santourm's surge lately everyone was gunning for him.

    He's toast, Newt's toast and as much as everyone hates Mitt the GOP hates Paul more.

    Pretty simple math when you add it up, Doc!

    More and more people are talking about what I've been saying all along -- we're heading down a path towards a brokered convention!

    What they aren't saying, that I'm saying is ... Ron Paul may very well be able to be a king maker, should someone give him the things he wants in return for his support. And that price will likely be pretty steep.

    And the deal would have to be made with one of those three unelectable dangerous fuckstumps.

    It would most likely be with Romney ... because that guy will say and do anything to be president. He'd be the first one to try cut a deal, and probably cut the most aggressive one.

    That doesn't mean shit if he's elected......

    Romney...."I never said that Ron Paul is mistaken", not like he hasn't used that before!

    I don't trust Romney for a second ... and I don't know what RP will be gunning for, so who knows what he'll get. Maybe he'll insist on Rand Paul as VP nominee, setting him up for 2016 or 2020.

    Yes, because a losing VP nominee always "sets you up" for a run 4 years later....

    It's all conjecture, but I wouldn't be surprised if he puts his son forward as part of a compromise. RP is looking beyond this election to the future, and is trying to shape the republican party. Most republicans 30 years old and younger agree with his positions and/or are ardent RP supporters. He is going to want someone to carry the standard forward that his supporters would be loyal to. RP fans have a lot of affection for Rand as well.

    He's capable of being a good president. He did a good job fixing all the fraud in the Salt Lake City winter olympics. The thing is he's for sale. You don't want to vote for anyone who seems to conveniently morph into each situation to remain popular with the status quo. Really the fact the man is Mormon or put the family dog on top of the car really means nothing to me. Mitt has been caught in some lies and he serves who pays him the most. We can't afford another one of those. We have to get this financial fraud and these wars under control or we lose our country. Mitt will do nothing about it. He will only enable the problem more.

    I think she's still immensely popular in conservative circles, and has become much more influential (for better or worse) than when she was just a governor from alaska.

    edit: only for worse, there's no for better.

    3/4 of those guys running for republican nomination would LOVE to have her endorsement. I shudder to think that actually ... maybe 4 out of 4 would love it.

    Again, I think they probably would all love it.

    FFS, they made a big deal out of a Donald Trump endorsement...

    I think Paul would run from her endorsement!

    The others I guess would want it but really it's a moot issue because it means nothing and she losing popularity by the day!

    You really have to talk to the citizens of Alaska to get the beef on Sarah Palin. In short, she was a crook. She quit her job as governor because a slush fund she set up for herself was surfacing and she had made a lot of enemies in the state by abusing her authority. She never was hardly in Juno which is the state capital, she remained in the Anchorage area most the time and was for sale. She wasn't doing much governing but was on the big corporate take. The oil companies owned her ass. She was also funneling pubic money into a fund which she was using for her own personal purposes.

    I don't think you will ever see her run for political office ever again but she will milk her fame. It's already started to fade but she can get speaking money and media money still.

    I'd like to think he would but I dunno. Too many Tea Partiers claim to either be of the Ron Paul line of thought or the Sarah Palin line of thought...

    She knows what she's doing. She has to appeal to the extreme right wing who only care about over turning Roe vs Wade and so called family values. The crowd that believe God really did set up the United States as a zion to save the world from. So she's backing Santorum because his base is her base. She can sell them lots of books, radio shows, magazines, and get speaking money talking in their megga super church's. Nothing more than niche marketing. It's no deeper than that and it's all about $$$$$$$$$.

    Yep, that's exactly why she didn't finish her term as Governor and can never run on a national stage again.....once her looks fade, she's gone!

    Which in and of itself scares the fuck out of me!

    The Tea Party is done....their influence is waning and by the next mid-terms they'll be a footnote!

    There really is no Tea Party anymore. It has been sucked into the Republican Party and the Republican Party has a civil war going on inside of it. You have the far right vs the more moderate Ron Paul supporters. The Democrats always need a scape goat to finger preferably a radical gun toting extreme one so really, the Tea Party image was created out of thin air by the Democrats. If anything, these would be your Santorum backers. Ron Paul supporters are not necessarily your typical Republican fodder. It's the typical Republican fodder that are trying to shut him down and get rid of him. So I would say Tea Bagger is just the new term for what we used to call the Religious Right or Extreme Right. They sure as hell aren't supporting Ron Paul I can tell you that.

    Where the Tea Party failed is they didn't stand as Americans, they stood as Republicans, took the dirty money and latched on to the dirty participants. It was over as soon as Sarah Palin blessed the movement and they accepted her. I would say Occupy Wall Street, Anonymous, even Oath Keepers are what the Tea Party should have been. You have to stand for values and you have to be open to including everyone regardless of party. As soon as you become endorsed by any party, you lose control of your movement.

    You can dress her up in pretty clothes and try to help her speak in complete sentences but at the end of the day a whore is still a whore......
