"Why should I support a candidate that believes there are times when it's ethically and morally acceptable for the government to intervene into the marketplace when it's popular and then flip flop on it and claim to have seen the light when I can support a candidate who consistently did not support TARP and predicted the housing bubble? "

You don't have to it. Go cast your vote for a ideologue. When said person loses in 14 months, do not complain when I throw it back in your face. Do not complain when House Speaker Pelosi spends more than ever in Jan, 2013, either. Tell grandson that extra debt was worth it, cause you felt so pure casting that vote.

You're attempt to turn the responsibility for the mess we're in back onto small government defenders of liberty is cute but ultimately falls short of the mark. I assume from what you've indicated that you either voted for McCain or Obama in 2008 and this go around you will vote for either Obama or whoever wins the GOP nomination. Now assuming Ron Paul doesn't win the nomination and that say...Romney does we would have an election between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. I fail to see in this scenario how I'm responsible for anything that happens from there. I support Ron Paul and I will only support a candidate who supports the message of liberty, peace, and sound money.

YOU and your ilk are responsible for everything that is happening now. YOU and your support of the establishment and the status quo are to blame for where we're at. You mock me for my stand on principles, and immortalize "compromise" which quite frankly we've had too much of in this nation. Go ahead and vote for Multiple Choice Mitt, that is your right but when they continue to ********** nation and drive us further into debt and farther down the road of ruin don't blame me, and don't say I didn't warn you. You continue to support these warmongering big government Keynesian neoncon statists and then you cry that the country's broke. It's the logical conclusion of the actions of you and your "moderates" that you love so much. You moderates claim good intentions, well you are paving the American road to hell with your damned good intentions. We're about to cross the Rubicon and you're leading the charge...

A vote for Paul aids Obama and Speaker To Be Pelosi. Paul will not draw diddly from the Dems. He is the 2012 Ross Perot, simply a spoiler. W/O any true chance to win. BO is far left of MR. BO and Hillary would be birds of a feather.
