You're delirious lol. They don't like Paul because he opposes the Fed, which makes powerful elitist people MAD money, he opposes the income tax which feeds the Fed, he opposes being Iraq which also makes elitist people money, and they dislike him because the media themselves are making money talking about Iraq.
They would much rather have Huckabee than Paul. Their strategy has changed though. They put up Huckabee thinking that some of Paul's support would settle for Huckabee, but that didn't happen. Their new strategy is to revive McCain from the dead and pray the independants that voted for him before will do so again instead of voting for Paul, but thats not going to work either, especially since McCain is in such a pitiful position. (No money, no poll numbers, no support, and little media attention compared to others)
this is spot on. and all this after they had already pranced out Rudi and Romney early on to no avail.
they'll dump McCain after NH when the primaries move on to 48 states with electronic voting and/or electronic vote counting. at that point they can choose who wins. they need Huckabee to pull votes from RP in Iowa and McCain to pull votes from RP in NH so the fraud is less obvious. i'm not sure if they'll have the balls to make Rudi win if he gets trounced in Iowa and NH, though I wouldn't rule it out entirely.
