mods moved the original post to oposing candidates subforum in under 5 min of announcement - do not know why....

 

[Dr.3D]

Never thought he would be IN.

Good. Never expected it to go beyond theatrics anyway.
Glad it is out of the way.

Good news. Mods aren't perfect- but I agree this is big enough news to go here.

 

[tangent4ronpaul]

Like Huck, - I bet his network put pressure on him about announcing the next season

 

[JamesButabi]

Good, less people for MSM to put ahead of Ron in polling. Pretty soon they will have to create new candidates in order to exclude him.

lol Thanks I needed that.

This was predictable. Trump's sideshow is finally over.

He did his job to help out his buddy Barack. Not surprised at all. Trump is a snake.

 

[Romulus]

Good news! We are building momentum...

 

[BlutStein]

Do I hear Palin? Good thing comes in threes and if we could go ahead and get her out of the way as well, it would really free up the field of obstacles.

 

[Kregisen]

I have a feeling this race will be between only Romney vs. Pawlenty vs. Gingrich vs. Paul

 

[MelissaCato]

He'll endorse Ron Paul, he just doesn't know it yet. (lol)

/joke

 

[speciallyblend]

he was never in, his supporters are proof on why this country and the gop is f'ed!!

 

[Liberty4life]

Starting to look like Ron is flexing and the ranks are thinning.

 

[TastyWheat]

Aside from Palin bowing out I don't think we need to thin the herd any more. One-on-one it'll be difficult to beat out Gingrich and Romney. Someone, preferably Ron, needs to siphon off some of those votes.

Meh, I don't see it that way.

Let's have this a straight up, one on one, mano a mano conflict.

Freedom or slavery.

War or peace.

In the words of the great Roger Waters, "We're gonna find out where you fans really stand". LoL

 

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

I don't know about Gingrich. He just put another nail in his coffin, calling Paul Ryan's plan "social engineering from the right", or some silly thing. Conservatives are trashing him now.

I knew he wasn't going to run but good riddance to bad rubbish.
