Matt, are you aware that there is a Political area on QRZ now?

"Brokered convention" would be where Ron Paul, still in fifth place, got to watch whoever was in third place cut a deal with the first or second place candidate to give them the nomination...

But I do have a question, Matt? When the 6th rolls around and Ron Paul is still in fifth place, what will your excuse be?

Hey moron - in case you haven't heard there will only be 3 people going to convention: McCain, Romney, and Ron Paul. Rudy and Huck will be dropping out very soon. Ron Paul has staying power and will be able to last until the convention.

Only three people?

Who's keeping all the delegates from attending?

But even in what you're suggesting is true, that still leaves Paul in last place -- and at the pace he's running right now, with too few delegates to move whomever is second into first, leaving him with nothing to "broker" the convention with.

You didn't answer my question, Matt. When the sixth rolls around and Paul's still in fifth place, what will your excuse be for his failure?

It is important to get as many delegates as possible. It is impossible to tell who will step up for a Presidential bid, but randpaul2012.com and randpaul2016.com are taken. Plus, I have seen you on the forums, so you are clearly aware of the Ron Paul Republicans who are stepping forward. I have one just one district over, and we are making plans for the next state elections.

This election was the first shot of the r3OV7ution, and that is why the enemies of human liberty are investing in much more than just beating Ron Paul, but rather, crushing him.

Sorry, David, but John Adams you ain't.

Welcome to reality: No one is trying to 'crush' your diminutive hero. Most of us have decided that he can do it all by himself, most especially so given the assistance he is being rendered by his 'friends.'

The Ron Paul campaign has obviously chapped the tiny nads of authoritarian parasites everywhere, but it is not all about Ron, but rather, the idea of a revitalized constitutional liberty. Freedom is popular.

Oh, yes, "obviously!"

Your posts will inspire an onset of logophobia in the minds of the booboisie who are already sensitized to such nonsense.

Known by a number of names - Eleutherophobia and Fear of Freedom being the most common - the problem often significantly impacts the quality of life. It can cause panic attacks and keep people apart from loved ones and business associates. Symptoms typically include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, and overall feelings of dread, although everyone experiences eleutherophobia in their own way and may have different symptoms, the most common symptom of eleutherophobia on QRZ is evidenced by logophilia.

Treatment available. (http://www.changethatsrightnow.com/problem_detail.asp?SDID=444:1524)

However it's still entirely possible that he could win the convention and thus the nomination.

Notice JYD has yet to answer post #2. That doesn't apply to Paul supporters. Obviously they are looking for their place in the "New Paul Order."

Either that or this is COMEDY. :D

Even if they end up at 49 percent each, this will not happen.

You really don't understand how the Republican nomination process works, do you Matt?

It's still more likely that I will win the Irish Sweestakes, which I still haven't entered.

So, McGraw, is your parody of the language of soviet realism, as adapted by the neoconservative movement, intentional, or unconscious?

You'd better stock up on tallow to make candles and some extra lamp oil. We'll need them when Ron Paul becomes president. Itmight also be advisable to read a few Charles Dickens novels to get a conceptualization of future realities.
