This article makes too much sense. Ron will go into the convention with a good amount of delegates and a GOP that is repulsed by its "front runner."

I'm not saying he will get the nomination, but the man is primed to make a hell of a lot of noise - and I'm a pessimist these days. Read on:

There stands Ron Paul like a stone wall

Wow! What a night.

Chaos and clarity battled tonight. Clarity won and I for one am very happy about it.

Now we get the one-on-one scenario I laid out a few weeks ago but which was delayed by Romney's victory in Michigan (won by his embrace of economic fascism).

Again, let me mimic Michael Corleone:

Romney's dead. Giuliani’s dead. Huckabee's dead.

Rudy will now drop out and endorse McCain. Les belligerents need to stick together. Huckabee will stay in to draw votes from Romney and hope to get VP. (Why anyone would want to be Vice President beats me.)

Romney’s attempt to buy the presidency with his personal wealth has failed. He outspent McCain ten to one in TV ads and got whipped anyway. His speech tonight looked like a funeral.

McCain was civil to all his opponents tonight except one: Ron Paul. That was the tip-off that this is now a two-man race. Ron Paul got 60,000 votes tonight in Florida even though there has been a media blackout of his campaign since three days before Iowa.

We are already being told that McCain is a lock; it's all over. That's the conventional wisdom and anything else is just wishful Paulian thinking. But, as with all my prognostications this year and last--including that Rudy had "zero chance" to win when he was leading the polls by 14%--my analysis is based on facts. Such as: John McCain has only eight percent of the delegates he needs. And: McCain is a deeply flawed candidate who remains unpopular with the Republican base.

In spite of taking a beating in the early primaries, the General ordered his troops to hold their fire and wait for the right time to strike back. The time is now! The time is now to drive the beltway elite all the way back to their homeland in Washington DC.

The troops are fresh. Morale remains high. There’s money in the bank and the orders are to fight on.

We will be in it to the end - and after!

One thing I always notice when I watch YouTubes of Ron's rally speeches after debates is how much better he comes off in them, when he has plenty of time to speak, than he does during debates.

With only four people left, he really needs to go on the attack. McCain is especially ripe for attack since he knows so little about economics and because of comments about 100 years in Iraq and spreading the war into more countries.

He definitely does need to rip into all of them, collectively. They are all libs, he's the only conservative standing on the platform, and he needs to make it abundantly clear with quick, incisive comments that will be remembered and leave no doubt. They are libs, he is the only conservative. Say it! "I can't believe I am surrounded by liberal candidates at a GOP primary".

I want THIS Ron Paul!:

But, either way, it's a great article.

I can't stand all this 3rd Party, OMG WER LOOZING posts. The goal has always been to take a boatload of delegates into a convention that is sick over the thought of having to coronate an out-and-out liberal - if not a totally brokered convention.

All of RPs delegates will HAVE to be reckoned with - and listened to.

The plan is unfolding in the only realistic way it could have, RP is no dummy, he knows what he's doing. A GOP nomination may not be the result, but our voices will have been heard and provided we can stay a cohesive movement after this election, there will be no turning back.
