thanks for the info/headsup, my interest in the election is waning outside of some obama gambool

It is less interesting without Paul. But I will be glad not to have to hear from Santorum.

He splits the Libertarian vote between him and Gary Johnson, and you guys get even further marginalized.

What are the actual chances that Obama doesn't win the election? Like less than .5%? I mean it's still cool to talk about the election and all, but it seems a little less fun to me when you already know it's basically a fact that Obama will win.

Intrade has him at 60 percent to win which seems reasonable. A lot can and will happen between now and the election.

I don't think there is a political operative on either side that would make that call. While the gop has been atrocious at politics since the 2010 midterms, there are many sinkholes that Obama could still fall into. But he has matured a great deal since his first year. It may be his election to lose, because R.Money sure as hell ain't trying to win it.

+1. He has a slight edge in the polls and most experts think the economy will continue to slowly improve, so 60% seems about right.

Eric is the one in the video. The reporter asked Romney about Kaufman.

Maybe the worst project for funding that I could possibly imagine. It is literally something that could be put on the Onion, and nobody would know the difference.

But they let him debate with Romney, Gingrich, etc.?

Obama would eat Ron Paul alive in a debate. Keeping Ron Paul away from the scrutiny of the general election is great for libertarianism, the media companies should DEMAND that he run.

Its funny that Ron Paul supporters are still banging the media bias drum. The media is in the business of entertainment and Ron Paul in a presidential debate getting crushed is comedy. The reason he doesnt get as much attention as front runners is because he is a fringe no hoper who never led the field unlike nearly literally everyone else who ran for nomination.

Oh and then when he gets attention cos of his racist past suddenly there is more evidence of bias because they dont want to talk about issues.

Then when we talk about issues in his containment thread you complain we arent talking about the right issues or you just outright call people trolls for not wholly embracing him.

Can't wait till RP is retired n done and so much attention won't be given to one of the most useless and non-effective politicians ever.

At least his son is smart enough to play the game a bit so he can actually have influence and sway within the party

Im honestly looking forward to the first Rand Paul containment thread in a post Ron world where playing the game is the new uncompromising idealism.

Obama says after the election he'll have more flexibility to Russian pres.

Seems he cares more about getting re-elected than fixing the issue. Standard politics . Wonder if RP would say anything like this ever?

fixing the what now?

and Obama is obv correct.
