I like many others on CD wish Ron Paul would be in the general election. However, reality is he will not win the Republican nomination and I'd say 95% chance it will be Obama vs Romney or Perry. I'm curious how Ron Paul supporters will vote in that scenario. I will vote for Obama.
neither. The lessor of two evils is still evil. Vote for policy.
Policy like low taxes, low regulation, and a no-compromises pro life platform?
I agree with voting for policy. But it doesn't seem like the majority of Ron Paul supporters do (note the poll results).
Anyone who supports Ron Paul and ends up voting for Obama (if RP doesn't get the republican nomination) is a giant hypocrite.
Whether Paul's supporters believe it or not-- Paul's platform has a lot more in common with the Republican platform than it does with the Democrats. If it didn't, Ron Paul would be part of the Democratic party wouldn't he?
Obama is the exact opposite of Ron Paul on almost every issue... especially government spending, inflation, auditing the fed, and Keynesian economics. Ron Paul would have a heart attack if he realized his former supporters were voting for a man who wants to increase government handouts and continue printing and pumping fiat money into the economy.

Exactly what I'm saying. I didn't want to come out and call the majority of the poll voters hypocrites, but I'm glad you did. They need a dose of reality.
