I can't listen to the whole thing. If he's going to do this, why not *at least* wait until Romney wins the nomination, if he does that. Does he not know about Ron's delegate strategy? Why do it now? Did he have a fight with Ron?
Not that that's good either -- it's not, as Romney won't do anything good he may promise -- but why now? Rand seems to have forgotten how corrupt everyone but Ron is. Very disappointing.

Rand is bad on enough issues (including pot/drug legalization) that I strongly suspect that he too is corrupt. He has been in office a short enough time that he could conceivably do some good still, but with his dad out of the picture I think that is increasingly unlikely.
Ron himself is unfortunately surrounded by people unworthy of his intellect. His own campaign manager, Jesse Benton who did a terrible job TWICE, has been chained to Ron via some marriage into the family. Ron's misguided sense of loyalty is his undoing.
It's a no-win situation. Only if Ron Paul was a loner with no ties to family to bribe or threaten could he be uncorrupted or uncompromisable. Of course, that would make him an utter unelectable freak in the eyes of the media and public. It would be like being a declared atheist.
