Well, the Ron Paul campaign pulled off another stunning upset. Mine, I mean. They managed to upset me again.

It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad.

Iowa, New Hampshire, Wyoming, Michigan, and Montana all promised good showings, but it was not to be. And at every loss, we get pointed to the next bend.

Be honest, if the point of this campaign was to get the message out, then quit pointing to the next primary or caucus, and we’ll all go back to our lives.

It’s nice to see quotes of Thomas Paine on the Ron Paul blog, but

the truth is we aren’t fighting a revolution, we’re playing revolution.

It’s a mind game. We’re stuck in the Ron Paul Matrix.

Oh sure there’s plenty of people out on the streets, but we’re fighting the wrong opponents and have a crazy idea that people are gonna quit and leave their support to us. Give me a break, the GOP hates us, the other candidates hate us. Anybody that quits is going to throw their support behind the party pick.

Look folks, that’s not rocket science, or as new friend said “rocket surgery”.

Our only chance is that John McInsane wins the GOP and we run third party.

Plenty of cheerleaders have already picked up the “summer soldier/sunshine patriot” cheer and are driving a deeper wedge into the camp.

I’m sorry, but I’m pretty tired of all the rah rah, it’s only half done, support the plan, were in this for the long haul stuff. There’s no way in hell the GOP is going to let Dr. Paul garner enough support to win and this brokered convention hype is just another pipe dream.

Look folks, people don’t care. You’ve not been in my world long enough to see this?

I’m afraid we just don’t have the time to wait for calamity to strike and then people will wake up to the truth. I just don’t believe they will. And even if they do, it’ll be too late. It’ll be alot more like Valley Forge than they imagine.

Look at 9/11, we rallied as a nation, and look where that got us in the liberty department. When the fan is struck by that smelly stuff, people aren’t going to rally around freedom, they’re going to be the sheep we’ve seen thus far in this election and follow the status quo.

Another thing, if Americans are so anti-war as is reported, how is that the only one anti-war candidate on the ballot can’t manage 7% of the votes? The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

So before all the hate pours down upon me and summer soldier accusations fly, my first vote ever cast for President was in 1976 for Eugene McCarthy and after Reagan went crazy I’ve voted for Ron Paul since 1984.

So face it, I am used to not winning an election and guarantee I’ve been in this fight longer than you.

But I will cast my vote from my heart and will write in Ron Paul this year also.

I just wish the fallacy of changing the GOP was abandoned when they first rigged the playing field.

I am not afraid of losing, I just wanted victory to be the plan.

Sorry for the rambling post, my heart is heavy and I’m tired of all the hoopla.
