Both of em seem to be forgetting that delegates are only bound in most circumstances on the first pledge, and then there are some still bound on the 2nd, but not many, and then I don't think any bound on the third, so we may have a plurality of Paul delegates originally bound to the other three, but when become unbound give Paul the nomination. Likely-hood of this happening? No one can say, but it certainly is theoretically possible, and the chances go up even more when our movement realizes this and vigorously goes after ALL the delegate positions no matter what.
Who the fuck cares what anyone else says about 'unfair' or 'cheating', it's the damn rules they set up themselves. Let's beat them at their own game, a game which primarily benefits the establishment due to apathy and lethargy and downright confusing ruleset at times that screens out most challenging the establishment. We are unique. We know what we have to do -- will we do it is the question.

It depends where he is on the ticket to determine if I will vote for the ticket.

Paul's negatives are just as high. I think Santorum actually has the best favoribility ratings of the 3.

You must be thinking of the GOP Primary electorate. Ron has by far the best favorables in a General.

And carries the independents. I'll bet Ron's favorable numbers with independents only looks something like 66/26/8
Romney wouldn't care about Ron's bad favorable numbers with Republicans. Romney will carry the Republican vote.
Newt and Santorum do not carry the independent vote like Paul does. Not even close.

My point wasn't that Romney pick Paul as I would never vote for such a ticket and I suspect a majority of Paul supporters, but the fact that if the GOP wants to win the General their only choice is Paul. Further, that I doubt Romney is going to have 900 delegates. The way it is shaping up now on the first ballot it's looking something like 650 x 3 with Paul around 450. Who knows what percentages of Paul delegates will become unbound after the first ballot, but we need to make sure we get every single delegate position no matter what. It's becoming almost certain of a brokered convention, and if we can't win then, then we had no shot to begin with. That is what we are working towards.
