Comments on: Where Will Ron Paul Voters Turn?

Politico: Dedicated Supporters Attracted To His Unique Platform Are Up For Grabs

[zerato-2009]

Why is it that they pundits are wondering where the paul voter will go? They will go to the candidate that best covers their concerns. Why is it that both parties feel an entitlement to all the votes. And if you do not vote for either party you are "throwing away your vote".

The election is a buffet of ideas and we should be ale to choose what we want. I do not like the hamburger and pizza the major parties are offering. So paul voters have fun and vote your beliefs.

I know I''''ve been wondering what on earth would cause this inexperienced rookie to continue standing out in the open, clinging to his NO DRILLING, NO TIME, NO WHERE position as he shoots the vast majority of Americans the middle finger. Posted by Beastof70 at 10:00 AM

FACT:
We''re not trying to get Saudi to drill more, we''re trying to get them to pump more of what they''re drilling. They''re not pumping what they could, number one. This is a gift, a gift to the oil companies by John McCain. They have now leased 41 million acres of offshore leases. They''re only pumping in 10.2 million of those acres. Seventy-nine percent of all the offshore oil available off the coast of Florida, into the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic Coast, the Pacific Coast, lies within those acres that they now have. Why are they not pumping? Why are they not doing this? Why are they not pursuing what''s estimated to be a total of 70--54 billion barrels of oil at their disposal right now if they pump? Why are these greedy fellows deciding they want to go beyond that? It''s because they want to get it in before George Bush leaves the presidency. It''s because they''re not pumping the oil to keep the price up. They are not even drilling. So here you have 30 million leased acres they have right now that possesses 79 percent of all the offshore, and they''re not drilling. And John says they need more? And it would take 10 years for it to come online.

Paul & Obama agree to end Iraq WAR!!!!!!!!!!

If OsamaObama is the proponent of "CHANGE"

Why does he look so much like a deer caught in headlights these days when action is required to get this so called "Enron" loop hole he points at closed??

If OsamaObama wants to implement "CHANGE" and really stick it to the commodities traders, why doesn''t he get off his butt and get this greenie weenie bio-diesel "SPLASH AND DASH" loop hole changed prior to the July 4th break?? They reported this loop hole will cost America $800 million dollars by next year if it''s not closed.

Come on you hyphenated-Americans, knock off your steady drum beat of name calling and whine....Offer up some real answers.

Now we see how all of my above questions have been answered when it was revealed yesterday how OsamaObama has long been in the pocket of big ethanol producers. It''s in his best interest to drive the price of crude oil sky high!!!

[beastof70]

Has anyone taken note of the latest.....OsamaObama is so busy chasing the big ethanol producers dollar that he''s once again telling America to go drill themselves. He''s been in the pocket of big ethanol producers since day one when he entered the Senate.

I know I''ve been wondering what on earth would cause this inexperienced rookie to continue standing out in the open, clinging to his NO DRILLING, NO TIME, NO WHERE position as he shoots the vast majority of Americans the middle finger.

I''ve seen how he keeps his rabidly irrational minions in line by constantly reminding these morons of *** Cheney''s connection to Haliburton....Even though Haliburton is not an oil producer???

For fifty years now Haliburton has had no effect on gas prices, but now OsamaObama is claiming they''re responsible for this 70+% increase in just the last 18 months since the Democrats regained control of Congress??????????

You forgot to mention the percentage of white radical groups in America who will not vote for obama.

===================

No, but I did include a percentage that includes the white radicals who will vote for OsamaObama. This group is known as the left wing pinko, hyphenated-Americans.

With iconoclast Ron Paul having ended his quixotic bid for the Republican presidential nomination - his platform had called for, among other things, ending the Iraq War, repealing the PATRIOT Act, returning to the gold standard and eliminating taxes on tips - his many dedicated supporters are up for grabs.

Let me see they are against the war against the PATRIOT ACT and they will still vote Republicans now I see why their canidate lost.

Who Cares about Ron Paul. During the Debates he seemed to not be running on all thrusters and was minus a few nuts and bolts. Ron Paul is an IDIOT and on the fence of being 1/2 crazy.

A lot of libertarians support Obama, mostly for his positions on the war and civil liberties. In the words of Larry Hunter:

"The answer boils down to this: It is indicative of how much I value individual freedom and how profoundly important I believe foreign policy to be at this juncture of American history that I am enthusiastically supporting Barack Obama for president despite how profoundly wrong he is on economic and tax policy. (It also doesn''t hurt that McCain himself is only slightly less wrong on economic and tax policy than Obama.)"
