Default Ron Paul predicts an Obama presidency

What Ron Paul does come general election time will have wide ramifications to both Obama and McCain. On the news this morning, when asked which of the 3 candidates would bring the troops home sooner he said Obama - but stressed that that was not an endorsement. RP was one of the few republicans to vote against going to war. From this perspective, and given McCains willingness to persue the war, RP could find himself in a politically symbiotic relationship with Obama much to the concern of McCain.

As they say: Watch this space.

Barry obama won't bring the troops home. That is just his campaign promise to get votes. If he does become the president, he will look at the situation in Iraq and claim it was completely bungled by the previous administration and keep the troop levels where they are (Recall a statement he made some time back about this- he said reducing troop levels will be on advice he receives from the military leadership). His reasoning will be that due to the previous mismanagement we cannot back out at this time, and thus, must maintain a prescence in the area.

Can't see how anyone other than the Ron Paul suckers could take him seriously. The man takes money from the KKK and neo-nazi groups. That tells me all I need to know about Mr. Ron Paul.

I love his excuse too."If they send me money than that's less money for them to use to commit hate crimes" No...that means you are the candidate that the KKK and Neo-Nazis feel most represent their interests.
