If RP doesn't win the nomination, pray that Hillary gets the Democrat nomination and work to get her elected because at least then the Republicans would have spines and oppose the crap that she (and Giuliani and Huckabee and most of the Republican field) advocates: endless war, endless spending, and no liberty.
No offense, but I'm done with all the calculating crap, and I'm certainly not going to work to put a socialist into office. From now on, I'm only voting for candidates I believe in, and this time, that means Ron Paul, whether he's on the ticket or not. Or, vote for the libertarian or constitution party if you believe in who they nominate. Vote for your good friend Herbert if you think he's the best person for the job. By all means, vote for Hillary if socialism and continued war is what you believe in (it seems you do not, and I'm not sure why you'd be here if you did), but please, PLEASE, do not vote for someone based on political calculation. It never really works out as planned, and our country just continues to circle the drain, while everyone concludes the scumbag we all compromised on is what the the people really want. If we can even a decent number of people to grow a spine and vote for who they believe in, other people will take notice, and change will come.
You have a spine or you would not be here

. Let's all do what's right, screw the consequences. Ironically, doing the right thing tends to produce the best consequences in the end ...
