NOBP strategy

[coot]

If every supporter of Ron Paul pledged to cast a write-in vote for him in the General Election if he doesn't get the Republican nomination, what would be the reaction? (Does every state allow write-ins?)

 

[BuddyRey]

Attention, GOP...NO ONE BUT PAUL!

 

[thoughtomator]

Oh, absolutely. There is no way they win without Ron Paul as the nominee. No room for negotiation, there is no trust.

 

[southernsontn]

that's been my plan all along, as it was in '08. I am not always a Republican, but when I am, I prefer Ron Paul...

The GOP establishment would say, "F*** you!", and protect the status quo.

I believe if you vote absentee you get a paper ballot.

Whenever Jack Hunter, Tom Woods, or Doug Wead are on tv, they need to keep mentioning 2 things.

1st) Santorum & Gingrich are not on the ballots in multiple States so they can't win 500+ delegates which means they are not electable.

2nd) If Ron Paul doesn't win the nomination, then Obama wins. The reasons are because Paul supporters are not going to switch to another candidate & no other Republican candidate can get as many independents & disaffected democrats to beat Obama.

It doesn't matter if you write in Ron Paul. They won't count it anyway. What's important is that no significant number of Paul supporters vote for the Republican nominee. Paul will probably endorse someone like last time (Chuck Baldwin), so vote for whomever Ron endorses.

Would help if the GOP voters understood this as well.

The only thing that scares the GOP is Obama winning and a third party run of Ron Paul.

I think we need to vow to vote Obama if Ron does not win. I honestly rather have 4 more years of Obama than risk 8with newt or santorum.

Yes, this is established as fact.

The GOP leadership could care less.

Obama or whoever...makes no difference, they all play for the same team.

The party doesn't care who wins as long as its not Ron Paul. It's the same people who profit whether Obama, Bush, Romney or Gingrich is in office. Makes no difference to "them"

 

[coot]

I was just wondering if the GOP would try to "bargain" with Paul supporters to avoid losing to Obama.

 

[coot]

Michael D--I could never vote for a pro-abortion person, even if he was running against Satan. I voted for Bush and McCain because I "didn't want to waste my vote". Now that I'm awake, I'm voting for the most principled, pro-life person, whether he's the nominee or not.

 

[Tod]

Rather than emphasizing that you and other Paul supporters won't support a GOP nominee other than Paul, how about if we emphasize that a moderate or liberal Republican doesn't stand a chance against Obama. If Obama wins, it is because so many Tea Party people and other Republicans didn't support the conservative candidate.

ONLY the CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE is able to beat Obama.

Newt, Romney are moderate/liberal candidates
Santorum may be socially conservative, but he is moderate/liberal in every other respect.
