rp's ideal economic philosophy and fiscal policies would dramatically change the nation's landscape, and cost a lot of the people at the top their power and money. rp was never taken seriously by msm and its a miracle that his movement has gone as far as it has.
romney is not the answer. gop got behind him when they had a chance to really revamp the party thru paul's movement and it will hurt them long term. disenchanted a lot of would-be supporters.
romney is doing very well in fund-raising, sure. but he is gonna get exposed terribly in the presidential debates. he struggled to differentiate himself and stand out from a reasonably poor set of republicans, and unless he is vastly improved, obammer will wipe the floor with him
