pahunkboy -> enough to swing the vote, Ron Paul (11/4/2008 3:40:02 PM)
UPDATE: According to CBS Montana, Ron Paul's expected 5 per cent of the vote (according to the polls) may be enough to swing the vote When the numbers are crunched, I wonder how many Republicans will wish that they had courted -- instead of making a court jester out of -- Ron Paul much more aggressively. In particular, states like Montana and Nevada will be ones to watch. http://westernstandard.blogs.com/shotgun/2008/11/the-price-repub.html Paul says we do not need any more legislation. we need to simply repeal the bad laws. I could not agree with him more. Swing the state? Imagine that.

Ron Paul is the only politician I would have voted for. (I've yet to vote in the 5 years I've been albe to vote) He's probably the only person in my life I would have voted for...

Why is Paul on the ballot or are you talking about a write in campaign. Why wouldn't those folks just vote for Barr the way I did.

Ventura 2012 He gets funded if Paul gets enough of the vote. Now we just need to get the damn debates opened up. What kind of democracy is in in which only the two mega parties get a voice in the debates? In sales they call this an 'alternate of choice' sales tactic... i.e. 'do you want the red SUV or the blue one?' Not 'do you want an SUV'....

He is not on the ballot in PA. He is on the ballot in 2 states. I just could not agree to the status quo. We have yet to see the massive effects of the bail outs. I regret not voting for Paul in the primary. His outlook is the ONLY outlook that could fix todays mess No other outlook will fix it.

Hmmm... I tend to agree, but since I would rather not take the chance of McCain winning, I voted for the only guy who could make sure of that. Right now, the only person who I believe won't annihalate the country once he gets into office while having a fighting chance against McCain, would be Obama. What I don't get is why wasn't he on the Ballot? He's exactly what we need, but if he can't even get himself on the ballot, no one will take him seriously. He also didn't campaign enough in general, sticking to only a few states and a few Internet ads on Youtube. You can't expect to have power in this country without spreading alot of wealth. We are after all an Aristocracy! Oh, sorry. I mean't "Democratic Republic", but I forget that since only insanely rich people ever get a chance to hold office...

Any of them that voted for the bail out. The reason why Ron Paul was shut out- is because he is for less empire. GE and other make alot of money off of war. Less empire would mean less corporate sales. However- that same money would have more value... so the logic holds no merit. States all have different laws about getting on the ballot. Obama is good at inspiring- but I think he is a wimp. Less empire is in effect more- no talk of paring spending to the bone none. And all the crying over taxes being raised. duh- Ron Paul would delete the IRS the 2nd week of his presidency. Think of how that fight would go? There still would be tax- you know every lawyer in the country would be lobbying...to keep the IRS.

I wrote in Ron Paul tonight on my ballot. It felt good doing so.
