It's a two-party system you idiots! You vote on the lesser of two evils. That's how it works. Sorry, but Ron Paul is out now and beyond that there's simply just no room for idealism in American politics anymore. Yes I wish Ron could've gone further and clinched the nomination, but I'm also a realist and realize that just ain't gonna happen at this point.

Voting for Ron Paul, writing yourself in, voting for Charlie Sheen, or whomever is just a complete throwaway of a vote. You'd be much better off vegging at home and watching American Idol instead... as if most of you were even gonna show up to vote anyways, lol!
I always vote and I think half the problem is everyone says "There's no way we can do anything why bother". If everyone would stop taking that mentality and go out and vote third party theoretically it should shake the two-party system up pretty bad. But everyone thinks everyone else won't so they don't. Does Ron Paul have a chance now? Probably not, but I don't deal in absolutes, so who knows.

"There is no room for idealism" I have to agree, but then why do you conclude we vote for the idelogical canididate? lmao

No your not a realist, your a sucker, its far from over..we don't even have the numbers yet. You fall for the media bullshit and vote for their guy you fucking sucker, don't be a sucker.

Oh my God, Deprave. It's over. Romney is the nominee. The only thing left is picking the vice-presidential running mate and you can bet your balls that it won't be Ron Paul. Just accept it. Ron Paul is through.

Not to sound like a Paulite fanatic but it's NOT over, the media has been saying Romney is the nominee by majority since the beginning practically, but that doesn't make it so. Yes the odds are extraordinarily awful for him but you know what they say about assumptions. There's no need to tell people to accept something and give up just because the odds are near impossible. That's like telling a Christian "Evolution has been proven, there's no god, just accept it!".

Well there's no way to REALLY know for sure until the end...

lol.

muyloco is going to be voting romney this year. everyone, feel free to point and laugh.
If he is the nominee I certainly will. UB is voting for Obama this year, everyone feel free to point and weep.

Just so I have this straight, a vote for anyone except Obama (Romney,Paul, etc...) is something to be mocked? It must be awesome to be so out of touch with reality that you can look right past the horror show and swallow the progressive pablum. Not much different than the religious zealots, don't worry God/Obama will make everything all right. Despite all evidence to the contrary.

God knows Obama closed Gitmo, repealed the partiot act, stood up for the rights of women, and ended the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Just like he promised!! What's wrong with you people!?!? He did everything he promised you!!! ( Insert sarcastic font here, and before the word "God" in my statement). I'm not a fan of either person who will win. People like you are what encourage bipartisanship in this country. Maybe suggest a vote outside of Obama or Romney? Because as a Marine that served from 2006-2010, neither the GOP or the Dems. did what I would classify as defense against our constitution, both foreign and domestic. I , as a Marine, swore that oath. How many people of any party did that?

Iv nothing against Ron Paul, alot of his ideas are common sense and quite sound...but to be quite frank, Iv more chance of swimming to the US and winning the Presidency (as an illegal immigrant) as Ron Paul has of being nominated....

So who you gonna vote for in the "possible eventuality" Paul doesn't get the nod from the God-party?
Voting for Paul no matter how the primaries end up.

At least i'll be voting my conscience and will sleep well regarding it.

It's true nobody knows the ACTUAL delegate count and it's all just speculation, and for a good chunk of them, it's not positive who they'll vote for unless they're bound to Romney from the get-go.
