If Paul Ryan Gets into the Race, Ron Paul Could Get The Most Delegates |
|
With Ryan in the race, he and Romney would split the establishment vote, and Perry and Bachmann split the fundie vote. That opens up the field to Ron Paul whose constituency would never support any of the other candidates.
And without super delegates, Ron Paul, conceivably, could enter the Republican convention in Tampa with the most delegates. Now, whether he gets the nomination, that's a completely different story. The Republican establishment, the fundies, and the Ron Paul voters would have open war fare in the summer heat and humdity of Tampa, FL.

3. Ryan will want residuals from the news companies he allows to video him |
|
He's already figured out how to make his constituents pay to meet with him back in his district.

4. I think the strategy is this. Ryan gets in to take out Romney |
|
Perry was supposed to be the great savior of the GOP. Not working out. Ryan is plan B

They would ignore him anyway: :wow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EY5Ofcxjs0 On edit: Note the blunt truths about Iraq and war propaganda, and the reaction of the (voting) audience. Where the HELL is our Democratic anti-war candidate?
