Yes. A candidate who is pretty much identical to the incumbent on every issue, to the extent you can pin him down, but in a dull and awkward package. There's the man to unseat the incumbent!

The only people who are going to vote for Romney are the knee jerk party line voters. And the voters who really need to see a nuke land in the middle east somewhere and think Romney is the more likely to push the button.

He is trying to make it appear that way. If he is smiling and laughing, it's because he wants you to think he doesn't care, whether he does or not. If something awkward happens, he's not going to ACT awkward. He's going to play it off. That's all he was doing, playing it off like no big deal.

Another similarity to 2008. If not for Palin, McCain would have lost in historic fashion. Paul Ryan is the only thing Mitt has going for him. Seems like the GOP establishment is satisfied with picking the worst Pres and then trying to rally the base around the VP instead. It's a sure formula for losing but they don't care.

They'd rather lose than run a non-bankster-approved candidate.

Times that by 1000 when it comes to Ron Paul. The establishment doesn't care about party or country. They only care about keeping their gravy train going.

I would, because Ron wouldn't have accepted unless he got something and at minimum would have a microphone in his face every time a significant policy decision was made. Better than retiring to Texas.

But it didn't happen. Romney's money doesn't care if he wins, much, but I am absolutely certain they want Ron far away from the chain of command.

Ron Paul is against "Big Government," except when that "Big Government" is the state government, in which case he's totally in favor of it. Paul was no less crazy than any of the other republican candidates, albeit in a different way. People only liked him because he was pro-pot legalization.

That comment is true...

Paul thinks the state's should have their own discretion as long as they follow the constitution. Because the constitution is so limited the 10th amendment gave the States the power to be essentially whatever they wanted.

While I'm positive that Paul wouldn't support a big government state I'm also positive he would let it be- he wouldn't believe he had the power to dictate to that particular state what is right or wrong because that state should be protected to practice whatever form of government they wish so long as they followed what was already established in the constitution.

I agree as well, but the tone of the comment is meant to imply that the idea behind a republic is somehow a crazy one. I don't know who all subscribes to the video but undoubtedly this comment was made by someone who supports a powerful central government.

I think of it like the drug issue. Ron Paul has said many times that he would respect state laws ending the war on drugs but he doesn't personally endorse the use of drugs.

Point being: Just because you would allow something doesn't mean you would encourage it. BUT That's not a distinction this top commenter was making, and the comment, as far as I can tell, is intended to make people who believe in decentralized power look like nuts. The context is important.


Ron Paul is against "Big Government," except when that "Big Government" is the state government, in which case he's totally in favor of it.

Replace that with "Ron Paul would decriminalize drugs, in which case he's totally in favor of drug use." If I had to guess, I'd say the comment was made by some rabid nanny stater who thinks the federal government's 'wisdom' shouldn't be questioned.

Yeah, it's comments like that which make people quickly dismiss Dr. Paul as a kooky one-issue candidate. I think it's unfortunate that the top comment is one that nonchalantly 'writes off' the only congressman who spent his entire political career fighting for freedom. But, 'this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause' (or, in the case of youtube, a lot of 'thumbs up').

I know, I'm guilty of the 'someone is wrong on the internet' syndrome, but this really rubs me the wrong way. I'm getting sick and tired of misinformation being the only information people see.

Watched it again, and Ryan's body language is off too. He should have been behind Mitt gesturing with his hands to help get the crowd going. Instead.....he motioned it down?
Cuz like I said, he knows its not wise to outshine your boss. :)


If they would focus on issues, I'd be fine with that. But if it's going to go Palineaque, they'll destroy his character using lies and distortions, meaning I'll find myself actually defending him from the liberals who post here.
fair enough, I just want to see him dirtied up so he is less competition in '16

It can backfire too. If the media puts out lies and distortions, voters will tune them out when they start pointing out his voting record.

Yep, although it's already happened. Ryan gets attacked by MSNBC, and the conservatives go "must be my guy, if those guys hate him! derp"

I have a feeling that the failure of the GOP and Romney is going to be blamed on Ron Paul supporters/3rd party supporters, but mainly us.

Yes

Oh come on guys, mitts self chanting isn't that bad. Remember the good old texas governor? I for one will not feel bad for the republicans when they lose. Just look at the clowns they choose to run.

Would have been funnier if he had tried to get them to chant "End the Fed".

Romney lost to McCain in 08 and McCain lost to Obama in 08. Yet Romney is a shoe in :rolleyes:

Yes Ron Paul did not win but the key difference is, he got CHEATED. Pretty pathetic you have to cheat yet still lose the main election.

Yes what happens when you're trained on teleprompters... once your script is remove, the truth comes out. Romney is just as phony as the RNC/GOP Tampa convention(also scripted).
The Romney implosion continues!

Was the clip doctored by MSNBC or is Breitbart and the right just running damage control? Im still hearing "Ryan-Ryan" but what do you guys think?

I don't know, but I do see there's a media campaign against Romney, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was taken out of context. Whatever the case, they made a big deal of it. I predicted that once Romney safely had the nomination locked up, the media would go negative on him, and it really has. Of course, Romney isn't doing much to really help himself either.

It sounds to me like some are chanting Romney and some are chanting Ryan at the same time.

Now I'm hearing rumor that Romney regrets having Ryan on his ticket. This is getting interesting.

Now they are finishing the job by taking him apart like the terrible candidate that he is.

Maybe not unlike how microphones were positioned away from Paul supporters at debates and conventions to capture only certain "approved" people's applause in sections for manipulation and volume control.

Yeah I can hear some "Romney" in there too, some were saying "Ryan" and a few chanting "Paul Ryan" all at the same time.

If anything, it goes to show how much of a control freak Romney is. He won't even allow the chants to be organic and "grassrootsy". I've heard many times that he's almost OCD about being in control of every detail.

Yeah, what gets me though, is that Republicans will notice the media doing this kind of stuff now, when it's a contest with a Democrat, but when the election is over or primary time rolls around again, they'll go back to believing and trusting it.

He didn't help him with Wisconsin and I think that is the main reason he wanted him, and now he is hurting him in Florida, so I can see why he regrets choosing him to be his VP.

Romney brings trying too hard to a whole new level. Leaves this fictional character in the dust. How is that even possible? :confused:
