However, many states have laws that directly bind delegates to the voters' choices. Some states bind all delegates, some bind only part of the delegates.
In addition, delegates would have to want to spike Romney so bad that they would take Paul who as a former LP candidate against Bush I repels them almost as much as legal heroin (which RP has advocated in a debate this year).
So the point is ridiculous. If Romney suffered some massive scandal (like the discovery he secretly has a harem of 72 virgin Nordic wives), I still doubt the convention would pick Ron Paul as the nominee. It would be Santorum. Or it would be Jeb Bush or Mitch Daniels.
The Paul campaign has made it clear they do not expect to have even half the delegates needed to capture the nomination. Personally, I doubt that he'll have the plurality in five states' delegate counts to have his name placed in nomination on the first round at the convention. The GOP old guard worked hard to deny him two states.
But keep in mind, he qualified on one state in 2008. Had they not cheated him this years, he would have qualified in at least five, maybe seven states. That kind of growth is something to build on, particularly with a far more adept retail politician like Rand Paul taking the core of the Ron Paul movement over after Ron retires.

BUT, Rand is just another dyed in the wool neocon who just backstabbed his own father along with his supporters. BS, I'll never vote for him, and I suspect there are many who feel the same.

Ron has never indicated the slightest disappointment with Rand's policy stands. Exactly the opposite.
I'm not sure why you think you get to speak for him. He seems to have made very clear how proud he is of Rand getting elected to Senate and the policies he has advocated.
Last I checked, Rand wasn't openly supporting the indefinite detention of US citizens without charges or trial, nor did he support an attack against a nation who has not threatened or attacked us, nor had he publically fellated Israel to climax.
Now that he has endorsed Mitt Romney, all that has just changed.
I'll be curious to see what ole dad has to say about it...
