Truth be told, I'm surprised how many Ron Paul supporters I know, and it's usually because of the Gold Standard/He predicted this crash back when Nixon was president.

Except, you know, recessions come and go, and there was going to be one eventually anyway, with or without gold.


At least they're not Objectivists though.

Speaking of, there is some hub-bub here in Maine because one of our counties had to postpone their caucus due to weather or some kind of bullshit, and Romney only one by a small amount of votes.  And this county that hasn't caucused yet is full of Paulites.  But the chairman of the GOP here is refusing to count those votes and even if they push Paul over the edge, the win will still go to Romney.

I'm ok with this.

College students are stupid enough to elect Ron Paul.

Actually, in this particular county of Maine, it isn't the college students, it's all of the 50-60 year old lumberjacks and lobstermen.  This is the area of Maine where the cockamamie idea of splitting Maine into two states usually comes from.

I believe it.

I mean if he got a shot at the nomination though. College students would be stupid enough to elect him. Obama and Romney is more of the same. Ron Paul is more of the same on crystal meth.

I'm not okay with it.  Everyone gets a vote, or nobody gets a vote.

On a deeper level, people don't really get one anyway. Aren't primaries just kind of a guideline for the party to follow?

I just hope nobody gets enough delegates to win the GOP nomination outright. A brokered convention will make for some hellacious entertainment, provided you find wingnuts frothing rabidly at the mouth as entertaining as I do.

I've been a registered Republican for about the last 17 years, so when it's primary time I'm thinking I'll let you guys vote on who I should vote for.

When the time comes, I'll put up a poll.

Also I think this will be the first election in my entire life when Oregon's primary has mattered! Yay!

Luna

I have just discovered the website for the local Tea Party.  They meet in the town where Suu's boss runs the paper.  I could probably convince her to give me press credentials and write an article.

Hilarity may ensue, if they announce their meetings more than a day ahead of time.
