I thought Perry's compliment was especially sincere. You can tell the Federal Reserve is on his mind since it comes up frequently in his speeches and answers.
It really disappointed me that Paul didn't extend an olive branch to anyone in response. This was a way of the other candidates reaching out to him, maybe even paving the way for endorsements down the line. Paul accepted their praise with arrogance; he should have reciprocated and brought the warm fuzzies. He came off as a know-it-all.
It's good news for us, but i hope NOBODY, not one RP supporter buys it and would consider supporting a mainstream GOP candidate

I majorly disagree - he came across as being sincerely appretiative of the positive attention, while at the same time not pandering to their desires for him to endorse one of them. I think Ron Paul clearly used this as an opportunity bring them all together, which is even better than reciprocation with fuzzies. He backhanded them all with truth. For the win.

I agree that Romney wants Ron Paul to win Iowa. Honestly I am not saying he is just totally machiavellian but I don't think he would just praise someone that is an opponent on stage unless he had an angle, and the best angle that makes since is pulling Newt down in Iowa. I be he knows that Ron could win Iowa but thinks he would not win the general, and if he does that destroys the one guy he thinks is a real challenge (Newt).

If Romney wants Paul to win Iowa to tear down Gingrich in NH, it will work to our advantage but he's totally underestimating the impact an Iowa win would have for us. Money, sleeping supporters, fence sitters, and something we've never had: Media attention, would come in like you wouldn't believe.

Exactly. He used the time to show that they were all taking cues from him, and not he from them. That si important when it comes t voting. If everyone else up there is listening to Paul, including your candidate, shouldn't you be as well?

There is a bigger truth here. Newt truly is our worst enemy in this election. I think he has to deflate for us to win. This will be especially true when we get into the South. We can beat Romney, but a 3-man race is far more problematic. We will be cut out of all discussion, and Newt will play the role of the conservative anti-Romney.
I think the campaign understands this fully, hence the epic Serial Hypocrisy ad and Rand coming out to take on Newt directly.
Romney is far more worried about Newt than us. Good! Let everyone underestimate us, and spend their dollars going after Newt. We need him deflated. Tonight's debate will hopefully mark the beginning of Gingrich's decline.

Romney's comment raised an interesting point, one I've been trying to make all year, one that the statistics for the number of individual donors, and the slew of straw polls wins (Oklahoma today!) backs up: Ron Paul has more actual supporters than any other Republican candidate. The media has never successfully explained this away.

Do you realize how much money ex presidents can make? Multi-million dollar book deals, charging $100k+ per speech (Clinton's does this), working as a consultant, getting appointed to the boards of huge companies, etc. Not to mention your presidential pension! ($200,000/year starting the day you leave office)
Clinton's made over $65 million just from speaking fees since he left office

It would be in the best interests of the Paul campaign, the Romney campaign, and the Republican Party for Newt Gingrich to be exposed. Romney is clearly not a good candidate; however, Gingrich winning the nomination could actually kill the Republican party ideologically. The establishment also knows which two candidates stand the best chance of winning. They also know a significant amount of Republicans support Paul and Romney. They are steady in the polls. Gingrich is volatile. That is very scary to them. They need a candidate with solid support, because it will reflect on the party as a whole. The more solid the Republican presidential candidate, the more likely they get more votes. Gingrich is a huge problem for both Paul and Romney. He could ride his current momentum long enough to get enough support to dominate the primaries midway through the process. At that point, neither Paul or Romney can do much of anything, and the Republican party is screwed with no real ideology.

Now Newt's comment toward Santorum on the other hand was calculated to deflate Ron Paul. He praised Santorum on his "strong position on Iran and bringing to everyone's attention what a serious threat they are". THAT was ALL ABOUT Ron Paul and there is NO doubt in my mind.
Romney may be a lot of things but he is nowhere the sort of snake Gingrich is. Not even close. I disagree with Romney on most of his issues but I will acknowledge that he's a good guy and I really appreciate the kindness he extended to Ron Paul...and us

It is strange that nobody ever attacks Ron Paul. Could it be he is not a threat to them? If Ron wins 45% of the delegates and is the only one who can defeat Obama, do you think he can get 6% more delegates belonging to the other neo-cons? I really question whether RP could find an additional 5%. Then Rove gets his beloved brokered
convention. Romney and Gingrich probably think coming in 2nd to Paul is all they need to do. Romney and Paul don't really share voters like Paul and Gingrich probably do. That's why you don't see Paul and Romney going at each other.
It's this that also keeps Ron from ruling out a 3rd Party run. Screw Ron at the Convention and face him in the general as a 3rd Party candidate. Then guaranteed loss to Obama.
The big game might be fought in the back rooms now over these two issues. Each side can destroy the other. Do Republican power brokers dislike Paul or Obama more? That is the question. The bigger a following Ron generates over the next few weeks, the better Ron's bargaining position. Ron's holding a good hand now and I think he knows it.

Fact is, Paul has defended Romney during both 2008 and 2012 campaigns for different reasons.
Back in 2008 he argued that Romney's religion should not be made an issue of or used to slur him.
During this run he said he thought Romney's pro-life conversion was sincere as opposed to flipflops of others on different issues.

Regarding a brokered convention, does anyone think it's possible that Rand could emerge as a compromise candidate between our delegates and tea partyish delegates for some of the others?

Do Republican power brokers dislike Paul or Obama more?
The answer is Oblahma, because he will keep their ponzi scheme going and continue to steal the wealth of the American people and subjugate them under what is soon to be a complete police state. Paul is not out to be president so much as he is out to save the republic. This is our last chance to save the republic. It will be totally gone before the 2016 election. Anyone other than Paul will finish us off. Trust me, the Republican power brokers will welcome Oblahma over Paul.

your right, his off handed comment was unnecessary.

People here make a habit of bashing people when they compliment Ron. Whether he was playing a game or not, it doesn't matter.
1) We aren't going to Romney
2) Over 7,000,000 people saw him compliment Ron
Since everyone is pushing the BS "Romney wants Ron to win Iowa" meme, this is just an extension of it.
You guys are looking into this way too much.

Don't cause any blow back by your comments, or the admins may have to implement the patriot act

Winning Iowa is only important because it should put South Carolina in play. SC is the must-win state.

Huckabee won Iowa by stealing Ron Paul's points in the previous election, Romney learns from others.

Romney knows he can't beat Obama without the RP voters. Slick move in trying to win us over. Won't work. :rolleyes:
the difference is that people following Ron are dumb sheeple. The people running romney's campaign are. I mean if you fed them steak in your house they would leave the house with bread and water. They think the rest of us think like them lol

Wasn't dr. paul's answer to the "oath" question also a subtle hit on Romney, considering Romneys latest tv ads about how long he has been married? Where he said it shouldn't be something you have to talk about but should show through naturally...
