Dr. Paul should go after Mitt and Newt like he did to Rick Perry. He is deadly when he wants to be.

True that! I know he feels pretty uncomfortable doing it because he's such a humble man, but I hope the campaign advisors tell him that we need that momentum, and a knock-out debate performance will help reclaim it.

that was great!
He just has to come up with some strong lines and prepare. He seems to wing everything. I love him for his class up there and honesty but if he wants to win he really needs to come up with strong lines that will bring some attention from him and start getting people who support other candidates to take a second look at him.

Like usual I am not with the rest lol.
Paul should HOLD his attacks during Florida.He cant win it. Let other spit and smear each other. He should push his platform, attack
the NDAA, SOPA, and PIPA. Be on more aggressive when moderator skips him on question.
He should attack them without mercy after Florida to maximize impact.

There are so many times during the debates when Ron could interject.
For example,
when Mitt and Newt were talking about Mitt's taxes and Bain Capital...
Ron could raise his voice and say, "THIS IS EXACTLY MY POINT! IF WE GOT RID OF THE INCOME TAX, WE WOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION! TAXES ARE A FORM OF SLAVERY! As for Bain Capital, THIS IS A FREE MARKET! Mitt had all the right to do what he did! Stop all this ridiculous fighting. Lets talk about keeping the fruits of our labor, the idea that WE own our money, NOT THE GOVERNMENT!"
The crowd would go nuts and it would be the most memorable moment of the debate...
Sometimes, I just don't get why Ron doesn't speak up like that!

What I want more than anything else is this ...
For Ron Paul to start talking - tell everyone that no one listened to his warnings back then but they need to listen now. Tell everyone that he is tired of all the rhetoric and is just going to tell it like it is than go on for as long as he can - have moderator interrupt but just keep talking ... be very commanding.
Even if they go to commercial break keep talking - the cameras will still be rolling and the footage will be played later.
When his mic is turned off he can say "I'll continue spreading my message of change outside, you all can listen to the status quo in here" and go outside to his hundreds of supporters, stand on the hood of a car for a stage and keep speaking about everything that needs to be done.
There will be a fire like never before in the grassroots, everything he said will be played on the news and it will make him look like the strong candidate with a legion of supporters while the other candidates stand on stage by themselves.
Any attack on Ron Paul during the debate while he isn't there will be considered a cheap shot.
.... just an idea.

This isn't about Florida, it's about the rest of the campaign. Dr. Paul has to remain a factor in the debates because it does affect voters' perception of him. If he keeps letting himself get shut out, he will appear more and more like a straggler who doesn't belong and is just taking up space. That kills supporter enthusiasm, leads to less donations, leads to falling poll numbers, and it becomes a vicious cycle.

I agree with the majority of the sentiments here. I think we're coming to a tipping point and whether or not we do well in Florida, we need to change the dialogue so that the focus is on Ron. The only way this is going to happen is if he goes on the attack in tomorrow's debate. Unfortunately that is what people want to see. Most people don't want to understand the underlying message, they just want everything at face value and that's it. Most people aren't like us and could give a shit about the business cycle.
I know this is a marathon, but the tide needs to shift our way soon, so the good Doctor should come out swinging before it's too late!

Yea, he is already half way there to looking like Perry did before he dropped out, and that is never a good thing. Sometimes i wonder if Ron's class and good nature messes things up for him sometimes. Ron just isn't good at playing this game when he needs to, something i know for sure Rand would do way better. It's like he thinks he will get fined for being feisty or overly emphatic in a debate or something. It's called a debate for a reason. Newt did and won SC because of it, sheesh.
Ron doesnt understand THE MOB mentality of winning. Once you are nominated and become president then you can do whatever you want as far as complexities of your policies go, but for now, pandering the tactics of the people and the msm is needed now and then. It's no different than the mob of rome, and hell, SC voters the night he got booed, is the closest damn thing to it. The majority of the voters, sadly, dont want much substance, they want fluff and fireworks and drama. Im not saying throw all substance away by any means, but damn, playing the Mr Rogers card too much isn't going to get it done.
And ffs, ill say it for the 21930932932093rd time.

I emailed Doug Wead about this thread and the fact that there have been many threads like this today. I feel people are worried that if we don't make a point to stand out now, we're going to be unable to move forward in the polls and we'll never lose the perception of unelectability. I asked him if he could get the message across to Dr. Paul before the debate that this is it, that it's do or die time. I can only hope the message is delivered.
Since interrupting or interjecting himself doesn't seem to be his style, how about he "filibusters" an answer, and when the moderators try and cut him off, he can say that he's not getting his fair share of time in the debate. One downside to that would be if it were right before a commercial break.
