    Because 100% of republicans dont vote.

    Or democrats for that matter. Or people who arent officially either party. Voter turnout in this country is abysmal and while its in effect a two party system there is not in the population. (ie swing, undecided, etc)

    There needs to be a canidate that has support of the base, as well as one that can get support from the middle. When you have a fringe canidate, no matter how popular he is to you, he may not have the draw to be electable.

    His draft notice said he could enter the Army as a private or volunteer with his pick his branch of the service with a comission as an officer and practice medicine. What would you do as a doctor?

    Using a legal means to serve is worse than using a legal means to not serve??? Gingrich/Romney...

    Doesn't matter to me. I'm voting for him, whether I have to write him in or not.

Barry has a $1 billion war chest to spend over the next 10 months. I can dig up questionable RP video's on the internet for free. What do you think they will find with real money?

    He had a decent night. He sure ducked and deflected the whole newsletter issue. He immediately brought Rosa Parks (?) and MLK into the mix. It was like a guy getting caught at a KKK rally, and saying some of his best friends are black. LMAO.

    Ron Paul was on fire tonight in the debate....

    He really hit the nail on the head with this one. Probably one of the best moments out of all the debates so far. You can hear a pin drop at 3:29...
