Congrats Mitt
Mitt sets a new record!
Quote:The former Massachusetts governor won Delaware with 56 percent of the vote and Pennsylvania with 58 percent. According to University of Minnesota political scientist Eric Ostermeier, that marks the first time that a presumptive GOP nominee has failed to reach the 60 percent mark in a contest conducted after his last major challenger exited the race.
(emphasis added)
Certainly, Ron Paul's loyal base is a factor, but if you're that loyal to Paul and his ideals, are you gonna switch to Mitt after the convention? I think the point remains: If Romney can't differentiate himself more against GOP also rans in the primaries, he has a near zero chance on November 6.

Yup. That's why Paul was the best chance for victory.

Well, a Ron Paul loyalist will never vote for Obama, but will he let his -non-vote give Obama a second term?

I voted for Mitt in the primaries. His nomination means that we on the left win no matter who prevails in November.

Yep, the neo-libs can celebrate four more years of debt, war, cronyism, and less freedom regardless of who wins.

That's your inner neo-con projecting. At least try to be honest with yourself even if you can't be honest with others.

I think Obama looks a little better in a suit, and I like overhearing old peoples discussions about whatever chain email they received this week. That's, well, that's about it.

Calling me a neo-con further illustrates your ignorance. You're the one who supports an anti-civil liberty, warmongering, Wall Street puppet - not me.

You'd think someone who can read others' minds wouldn't be mired in such a sad, crappy life.

Yep, that's why I'll be voting for Gary Johnson or Ron Paul, and you'll be voting for Bush III.

And in your little, screwy UAB mind that rules out politcal expediency. You're a great representation of the lowly education offered there.

West Tennessee Normal School academic smack.
I am supporting the candidates that best represent my ideals, even though they have no chance of winning. That makes me principled. Meanwhile, you (a so-called liberal) are willing to support a fourth Bush term. That makes you the expedient one. You don't get to redefine words to fit your agenda.

More like congrat's Satan. I'm a true conserative, that's why I'll never vote for Romney and his Mormon cult agenda. I'd rather write in Ron Paul than slick Mitt.
