The campaign is over (split)

[Robrank]

Yeah, if they want to let him in, they have room to be able to justify their decision. That's where negotiations come in.

If we have to pray they round up to 4% in a state Ron nearly won in 2012, just to make a debate...this campaign is over. He has not gone up at all in the polls since the beginning. A continual slide downhill. Shame on the people running this campaign. It's pathetic.

 

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

If Rand is bumped down, the campaign is over. No one at the kid's table has a shadow of a chance at winning the primary.

Trollolololol

Can't deal with facts, I see. Shameful. You aren't trying to help the cause.

 

[Paulite]

The campaign was over when he decided to play nice with the establishment... Some of us here are glutton for punishment including me and are hoping for a debate moment

 

[Robrank]

He was once polling in the mid-teens back in March-April.

Nobody is going to out anti-establishment Trump. No room for anyone until he implodes or wins.

Polls mean nothing right now. Let's talk in a month.

Bullcrap!!!! They determine who is on the main debate stage.

Trump will implode, either by his own doing or by the Republican Party.

 

[r3volution 3.0]

And what, pray tell, would you have had the campaign do differently?

 

[SilentBull]

Bullcrap!!!! They determine who is on the main debate stage.

Yeah and that's not Rand's campaign's fault.

And there you go.

 

[William R]

So much promise!!! Rand Rand Rand. You should have run the 2010 Kentucky campaign all over again and you'd be much better shape today. First act as Senator in 2011 introducing legislation ending birthright citizenship.

The country is in rebellion and you just didn't see it.

He was once polling in the mid-teens back in March-April.

There were 1 or 2 other candidates in the race in April. There are 14 now with 9 or 10 of them in a statistical tie for 3rd.

 

[derek4ever]

Yeah and that's not Rand's campaign's fault.

That's right! It's not Rand's fault at all! Why do you think the GOP decided to consider polls from IA and NH now and not in any of the previous debates??

 

[brandon]

Not much of a surprise. There's little reason to continue if he's not in the debates.

 

[supermario21]

I'll spoil it. Iowans are stupid. Or most Republican caucus-goers anyway . Though I like the Hawkeyes. And as much as I don't want to out of personal distaste for him, I at least like most of Cruz's positions.

Rand's staff was embarrassing.

 

[Murray N Rothbard]

Just not his year. Trump had 2 effects in the race- knocking out the true establishment candidates (Bush, Christie, Santorum, Graham) and taking the place of the anti-establishment candidates (Paul, Carson). Now we just have these middleground people, Cruz and Rubio.

Rand should be ready in 2020 after either a failed Clinton or Trump presidency.
