should be the new mantra. They are unable to bring in the new voters, attract Independents and Democrats needed to beat Obama. If Repubs do not get behind Paul its 4 more years of Obama. Polls show it clearly.

I think if we are to be honest with ourselves, Ron Paul is the ONLY GOP candidate who stands a chance against Obama. With leftist liberal movement in full force, any other GOP will be slaughtered. When Obama propaganda machine starts blasting pro-occupy 99% propaganda, it will make everyone forget all the bad stuff he`s done.
Only Ron Paul has a realistic chance of beating him.
Romney is seen as pro-banks 1%, ultra pro the 1%
Gingrich spoke badly of occupy, insulting even, 0 chance of getting anywhere
Santorum is too radical to be elected in a country that`s going liberal on social issues
Perry and his grade D debate performance makes him easy pick for Obama who`s decent speaker. This combined with his anti-gay stance, pro-death penalty makes him a big NONO for most
Donald Trump has been pumped today by Fox as late candidate. He`ll just be seen as joke and buffoon and won`t generate real traction.
Only one left is Ron Paul. It`s painfully obvious. GOP has to make a clear choice: 4 more years of Obama or Ron Paul. It`s that simple.

we can use deductive reasoning to come up with Paul and pretty much everything you said is right; where i see the biggest argument for a RP nomination is drawing in the independents and 'non base' liberals. The educated ones, the ones who 'support' all the government programs because they see 'good' but are rational enough to be convinced that obama is a government statist and warmonger at heart. These people have been disappointed enough to vote for someone like RP but not a Romney are gawd a Santorum. The counter argument the media propagates is that first they dont even mention RP's appeal with these dems and they love arguing that the GOP base wont vote for RP because of his antiwar stance. I think most of us here just dont believe that the 'base' will go vote for obama if RP is nominated. They see that he can and will deliver on the budgetary issues and can see the sense that we don't need troops in 150 countries. We all know the Congress will grind out RP's ideas for good or bad and the GOP base needs to see that. Getting the crossover votes is the key and none of the other losers in this field can deliver on that at all

CNN really pissed me off last night. They said (and I quote) "he's not much of a Republican" (speaking about Ron Paul). CNN is really pushing Mittens and it's complete bullshit. The establishment is doing what they establishment does - foisting what THEY want on the American public, rather than allowing the public to make up it's own mind based on unbiased reporting.
