Until I hear otherwise, I'm taking this as Ron Paul's blogger's goodbye. I hope he is fired forthwith.
So far all we have is one blogger who claims he has an email from Carol Paul that this was not written by Dr. Paul. That's not much to go on considering that message is on the front page of his campaign website as we type.
I hear ya, robin. I'm taking a wait and see approach. Meanwhile it's been very interesting to see the reactions around the internet.
I think Rense's piece if off base. I understand the Paul's were to be at a rally today, (according to the thread at the RP forum). This is apparently unacceptable in this case, and therefore is perfect timing to kneecap RP when he can't react. So what have we? Tos4?
Jeff Rense wrote this yesterday. If you think we have been conspiring all along against Ron Paul's campaign then you must live on another planet.
If you think we have been conspiring all along against Ron Paul's campaign then you must live on another planet. I think there are many quesitonable behaviours, but the deed has been done. If Rense has not the sense to question if it was written by RP to begin with, or at least a suspicion that something was amiss, I can't say it's any more fair to give credit to Jeff, that which was not extended to Ron Paul.
His last message with the Trotsky quote is STILL ON HIS CAMPAIGN WEBSITE. It was written on Feb. 8th. This is the 10th.
Guess we've been had.
Read post #2, perhaps RP had some outside pressure.
??? What more pressure is needed than looking at the current delegate count? Or maybe the funding? We've believed Ron has been a man of conscience all these years, never making backroom deals with other congressmen or voting for pork benefiting his own district, and now we're to consider the possibility that someone successfully applied covert pressure on Ron Paul to stop actively campaigning? I don't see how that could be in the cards. It just does not fit the Ron Paul profile. And there's no more pressure needed than looking at the stats right now. Ron's always been a practical, realistic guy, and the stats are not in his favor in terms of winning. He's done well, better than most of the original GOP contenders. Witch hunting is out of order here.
I'm not suggesting a witch hunt. If he chooses to end his campaign now, I would like to hear him say that he is NOT endorsing McCain.
I think it quite silly to suspect that he would endorse McCain, so I don't see why this is important to you. He's just as likely to rip up a copy of the Constitution at a press conference, if you ask me.
He just made a big deal about remaining a Republican; no 3rd party race. The usual party practice is to support the party's nominee.
Assuming he has turncoated many times before, this is to be expected.
I would never call Dr. Paul a turncoat. Why do you say that? He is the true conservative. Running 3rd party would have been a good choice for him to make, and would have helped defeat McCain.
