12. Ron Paul is not crazy! He's a GENIUS! Please stop saying he is crazy!
Make sure you tell every Republican you meet that you think Ron Paul is BRILLIANT!

Just so long as they don't know that you're a Democrat.

Repeat after me, and practice saying this in front of a mirror:

"I am a Republican, and Ron Paul is the only candidate, from either party, who makes any sense."

Say it again, until you can do it with a straight face:

"I am a Republican, and Ron Paul is the only candidate, from either party, who makes any sense."

Now again, this time, try and sound ernest and sincere:

"I am a Republican, and Ron Paul is the only candidate, from either party, who makes any sense."

Now, work on a 30-second "Elevator Speech" to explain to Republican strangers (who don't know you're a Democrat) why they should throw all their time and money behind electing Ron Paul, and why doing so is NOT futile.

Of course, it's all bullshit.

But you did NOT hear me say that.
