    I've had some luck with the above, reminding Dems that Paul is their best option In the GOP Primary rather than trying to win over voters whole sale all at once is a workable idea. If we can turn out the vote more fully in these Open Primary states it will really help

    It really depends on the democrat. Are they happy with Obama? I wouldn't even bother. Are they disillusioned with Obama? Talk to them about how in a general election, Ron Paul is the only candidate that can hold Obama accountable for his warmongering, for his trampling of civil rights by signing the NDAA and other things, for his cracking down on medical marijuana at far higher rates than Bush ever did, for his bailing out corporations, for his collaborating with lobbyists, etc. If they're worried about these things, those issues will only be drowned out during a general election and, assuming Obama wins reelection, over the next four years.

    A lot of Democrats I have seen are still siding with Barack Obama, they still think he's the best option and their argument is always "He started with the crap that Bush made, so he's not going to do perfect!" I'm not sure what to respond to them when they say that though...

    I've had some success with "if you're supporting Obama in the general why not support Paul in the GOP primary? He's the best of the bunch there isn't he, so that's win-win "

    I will say it doesn't always work, but even if someone doesn't want to lean Rons way in the general it doesn't hurt to get them on board for the primary (worth the effort IMO)
