How difficult should it be for Ron Paul to win votes in states where John McCain doesn’t campaign in a primary the Senator has already won? Not very, and yet Paul has only collected single-digit results throughout most of March, April, and May. The Boston Globe points out that Paul won his biggest percentage yet yesterday — but still barely registers on the meter in a state that should have provided him with a huge boost:
John McCain has the Republican nomination wrapped up, but Ron Paul isn’t going anywhere.
In fact, in Tuesday’s little-noticed Republican primary in Idaho, the iconoclastic Texas congressman had his best showing so far, grabbing 24 percent of the vote, nearly 30,000 votes in all.
McCain won with 70 percent, while the other 6 percent went to uncommitted.
