Ron Paul is surging in the polls. Rasmussen puts him ABOVE Obama for the first time.

Ya just knew Paul would sooner or later have his turn at bat, He'll be the rightwings messiah for a week or two then he'll expose himself as the whack job he is and he'll slither back into his hole, leaving the GOP with no one left to vote for.ooops. Result?Obama by default

And I thought it was just the extreme right evangelicals that had a
rabid following

Crazy me, I'd really like to hear about Obama's accomplishments over the
last three plus years, instead of someone stating they are voting for Obama
simply by default

As usual a righty making up reality on the fly..You need to read a little closer as i never said i was voting for Obama by default, i said Obama will win by default.
Also are you equating the Majority of American voters who voted Obama into office as something akin to a Democratic version of extreme right evangelicals ?

I'm a Libertarian

I'm equating your descriptive words about Paul, like "whack job" "slither back in hole"
with that of the extreme right.
I guess you forgot to add "dangerous"
I kinda lump folks like that together when instead of
paying attention to the issues, they just name call.

I can't answer for the folks that voted for Obama in 2008, except I
think they were as tired and disgusted with the agenda of Bush Jr as
much as I was. Too bad Obama simply became a Bush Jr III.

I'm not really steadfastly behind any one party i just think in this particular lead up to an election Obama and the Democrats sound more credible than the GOP candidates who arent selling me on their capabilities to run the country better than Obama.,
The only way i can see the GOP turning it around is if some one else gets parachuted in, perhaps a Jeb Bush or a Chris Christy although a few weeks in the lime light could put the flame out on them as well.
One of todays problems is the populations demand for a perfect President who can wave a magic wand and make everything better,well that aint gonna happen so compromise has to be part of your voting choices.

HUH????? What is an example of "sounding credible" to use your words?

Also how are Jeb Bush and Chris Christy any better than Santorum or Gingrich ...or Romney or Ron Paul for that matter? They are both insiders and Jeb Bush is even a Bilderberg elite which this country needs to GET AWAY FROM. Chris christy, from what I can see is nothing but a loudmouthed fat American slob and if having any panache is part of what is expected of American presidents, he has none. He's the epitome of what the French dislike about Americans.
