I am a conservative and I enjoy the reaction to Ron Paul’s candidacy, but let’s get one thing straight. He can’t do it. He won’t get the Republican nomination and if he runs as an independent, the Democrats will control the White House for the next 8 years.

Ron Paul’s campaign is not useless by any means. With so many conservatives in the
