Ron Paul urges third-party vote

[abburdlen]

McCain isn't going to get Ron Paul's endorsement. :nopity:

If you know anyone who simply won't vote for Obama for whatever reason and isn't in love with McCain send them word that Ron Paul wants them to vote third party.

And for those that digg, help spread the word.

1. Threads advocating for someone who isn't a Democrat should be banned, and pizza served, imo.

2. I'm certainly not a Ron Paul fan

the point is Ron Paul can be McCain's Nader.

3. You fail.

EDIT: Barr is McPOW's Nader.

4. I disagree. I'd rather see a vote for Paul than a vote for McCain.

...and the OP is hardly a newbie.

I think it's valuable information.

6. I think that is what the analysts are saying, that McCain will lose more than Obama on this one

[secondwind]

5. the entire Ron Paul Statement is on DU, and it says that his endorsement of a third party

will be bad news for McCain, not for Obama

8. Wow.

Do I need to take some loyalty oath to the Democratic ticket?
I canvasses for Obama here in NC, I've donated to the campaign, I want, and expect that Obama will be the next President.

Splitting the anti-Obama vote helps to get us there, that's why I'm hoping to get word out that one of the former republican candidates for President is asking his supporters to not vote for the Republican candidate. The media was non-stop about a hypothetical rift between Obama and Clinton but I doubt we'll hear nary a word about this.

And Ron Paul has made it on the ballot in Montana and Louisiana, so whether it's Barr, Nader or Paul himself we can hope the non-Democratic vote gets split this year like the non-republican vote got split in 2000.

7. why post this BS

9. Because it hurts McCain more than Obama

Ron Paul was a republican candidate for President. He out preformed McCain in several states during the primaries. He's now asking supporters to NOT vote for the republican nominee.
Most of the Ron Paul supporters would never vote Obama regardless what Ron Paul asks. But is a sizable chuck of his base doesn't vote for McCain, then places like NC are seriously in play.

10. Looks like McCain's getting naderized!

I don't mind seeing McCain getting his votes poached!
