CNN doesnt even read his name anymore when the polling results come in. He was 100% no chance of winning, ron paul, just save your money and drop it

They barely did even during Super Tuesday.  In my opinion, the media's portrayal of him and plain old lack of acknowledgment of him is what fucked him over.

Even if he drops out of the race tonight he had a huge impact on the topics of debate in this race. He's opened alot of people's eyes to what a politician should be and where our country should be going. But he doesn't have the establishment's influence behind him to help mindfuck the mildly retarded voters into supporting him, not really surprising.

Now if only Huckabee would drop out and ineligible McCain be exposed.

Thank you Fox News. They didn't even let him debate in a republican debate on Fox. Even though I wouldn't have voted for him, it would have been fun to see him verbally dickslap McCain and Romney.

RON PAUL was never there to win, simply to promote libertarian ideals - free market capitalism, personal responsability, limited government...

we are talking about him right now so he has met his objectives.
