In Virginia, a Vote for Huckabee is a vote for Paul [Moderator: Info is unverified]

In VA, delegates are elected seperately from the primary. RP people can still become a backroom delegate. But for these delegates to matter we need a brokered convention.

The first, big step, is voting for Huckabee in VA.

You are full of crap. Go away, troll.
 
A brokered convention realistically will not happen, and even if it does Paul will not hold enough sway to become the nominee unless there are a massive amount of delegates out there that secretly support Paul, which as nice as that would be is incredibly unlikely.

The best one could realistically hope for is for Paul to hold the crucial votes. But with Romney openly supporting McCain, what would most likely happen is Huckabee would maneuver to try to get a VP slot. Bam, game over. In fact, that could all be discussed and agreed to before the convention even takes place.

By all means, we should continue to fight tooth and nail for Paul. But you do that by VOTING for Ron Paul, not by voting for the enemy in the tiny hope that by some cosmic alignment that a brokered convention would swing in our favor.

By voting for Huckabee, you only give him more leverage to get what he wants.

Sorry...I just can't do it...This evening I'm voting for Paul. The same way I would have voted when I got on this thing in July last year. If Huckabee wins, and it's brokered then great.
 
This is getting sickening. This is just a great stategy! Get huck 1000 delegates and McCain 1000 and RP 200. Yeaw a 1000 degegates are going to break for RP after he received 1% of the popular vote because all RP's supporters voted for Huckabee in the primaries. Yeaw they are going to listen to all the RP turncoats that rally at the convention whinning that really meant to vote for RP. Get freaking real!
Anybody that is advacating this is NOT a RP supporter or if they were have switched to the Huck as a voting for the lesser of two evils thing.
 
A vote for RON PAUL counts as a vote for RON PAUL. Nothing else. Stop comparing what we did in WV (at a convention) to a public primary in other states. It just doesn't work the same.

VOTE RON PAUL!
 
How can this thread still exist? If you vote for Huckabee than you support Huckabee. What a joke.

The campaign has already said if you support Ron Paul, vote Ron Paul!
 
I swear if McCain wins by 1 or 2% and Ron Paul gets 6-10% of the vote......... You guys in Virginia will be blamed for losing the chance at a brokered convention.
 
Huckabe threw away his chance to be VP by refusing to stop his campaign at request of Perry in Texas. He is trying to win.
 
This may be one of those times that the "enemy of my enemy is my friend." Sometimes you make a sacrifice in Chess to get the Check Mate. Certainly, the Campaign couldn't endorse supporting Huckabee in any instance, and I understand your dedication to Dr. Paul. I'm just saying that we have to play smart with the end game in mind! I appreciate your hardwork and dedication to the cause, but we should think w/our heads and not our hearts on the Va. Primary.
 
That is exactly why america is going down. PEOPLE KEEP ON VOTING FOR THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS.
