30. Maybe he resigned to the fact

that the 30 or so percent that support Romney cant be taken away. With few resources, why waste your energy on a losing battle? Also notice that he rarely attacks Obama during the debates. Maybe he has a secret deal with Obama too?

Btw search youtube for radio attack he made against Romney which I heard personally in Omaha(sometimes, Iowa ads run in Omaha stations because of our close proximity to Iowa)

Did they stop the count or something? it's taking forever for final results from King County. Mr.Turnip Mar 2012 #13

That's true, the party will never allow Ron Paul to make the ticket, which is sort of sad to watch. AtheistCrusader Mar 2012 #24
