The Paul boomlet is likely to die quickly, however, as his supporters depart and the name candidates take the stage.



Yeah, right.

Is this person retarded?

It's possible he was just trying to say that since Paul is leaving the conference this morning that it's likely his supporters will all take off, too.

Of course, he chose the most dismissive way of saying so he could come up with.

As a Chicago Blackhawks fan, I would expect this type of ignorance from Detriot! Ugh.

Not sure this warrants a phone call. We will need press in Michigan, so we best not piss them off too bad from the get go.

Please use common sense people.

I second that. They will see they are mistaken--time will show that. A comment on the article is sufficient, and it doesn't even need to be an angry one.

Is there going to be a straw poll at this event?

There are two. One organized by Giuliani or Romney (I think its closed so only a certain group of ppl, cant remember which) and one by the Gun Owners of America (which RP people asked for)

maybe what this guy was saying, was that the large people turning out there were mostly for Ron Paul, but after he leaves, they will leave too. He might just be saying there is less overall support for the republicans than it appears because so many Ron Paul fans are only there for him and not to see anyone else.

If this is what he means, thats not really a bad thing.

I was trying to make sense of the statement by Ron Paul quoted in the article:


"This will be a test for us," Paul said earlier Friday, in an interview with the Free Press editorial board. "We may have a dozen supporters up there; we may have a couple dozen. And they'll all be excited."

Sure, a dozen or two? Heck come to my neighborhood and have a barbecue, I promise 100's. Not sure what a "sea" is but usually it is used as an adjective for "tons".

We should ditch Ron Paul because the beautiful charismatic antigun, pro abortion, anti family, big government, Rudy Giulani is the main man for us Republicans.
