(31,706 posts)That's what the teabaggers are looking for. You are right that he won't fall like Perry or Cain but he's sure fading. This clown car demolition derby of a primary process has made him the last one standing, but wobbly at best. He has little to no organization and this will hurt him as the primary moves from the cables to the voting booth.
You are probably right that Paul won't win a southern state but he sure has strength out west. He also has organization. Not all states will be voting...others have conventions and caucuses and this is where Paul will pick up delegates...enough to make a lot of noise at the convention. He could be the deal maker/breaker at the convention...and possibly this could work in Gnewt's favor. It's hard to predict that far out considering the twists and turns we're sure to see in the upcoming primaries.
If I were a betting man...which I'm not, I still think the nomination is Mittens to lose. And he sure could lose it. The entire rushpublican field is the lamest since the Alf Landon days and whomever comes out with the nomination will "lead" a bitterly divided and demoralized party.
Cheers...
