Some good news for Hillary: rightwinger/Ron Paul fan would vote for her over Rudy.

So I'm voting for Ron Paul

Today I was getting gas at the gas station and these two old guys practically charged me. They looked like they were straight out of the movie "No Country For Old Men." They had on 70's style sun glasses and long button up shirts that were several sizes too large and weren't tucked in. I'd bet 100 bucks that at least one of them was packing heat under that shirt. There was just something about these guys that screamed "armed."

Anyway, one of them came up to me and said, I quote, "I'm looking for a LOT of white people to vote for Ron Paul, because the God damn minorities sure as hell won't vote for him. Do you think you can help me out?"

I said sure. He gave me a bumper sticker and watched me attach it to my jeep bumper. When I road off I strangely felt like I had joined some kind of cool movement, full of guys like myself with guns who wanted to return to the 70s.

Anyway this sealed the day for me. I'm voting for RP. Fck Huck. After talking to these dudes I feel like RP has a real chance.

I'll vote for Hillary if that POS Rudy gets the Repub nomination. After the gun lawsuits he pulled back in the 90's, he can suck my nuts.

Holy crapoli! This is the kind of endorsement nobody needs.

1. Yep, they hate Roody-doody down here in Virginia too..

for the very same reason. What's the redneck beef with Hucky I wonder?..:shrug:

3. Could be one of these:

He raised taxes while Governor of Arkansas
He ticked off a lot of folks by consolidating small school districts in the Ozarks

Lots of folks in Arkansas who don't like him. At the end of his term, he had the support of only 13 of 30 GOP legislators at the State House.

5. I was thinking it had more to do with his immigration policy..

but you could be right about the taxes.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

2. I've talked to a lot of Ron Paul enthusiasts

there are quite a few around here, mostly interested in three things-no taxes, out of Iraq, and leave me the heck alone, government.

But hey, it looks as if Paul is peeling support away from the Huckster, which is good-and obvious that Ghouliani will never get the gun vote.

4. you are right, no one needs that endorsement

[Buzz Clik]

6. My question is this: Would Ron Paul look at this quote...

and think to himself, "Mother of God. THIS is my voter base?" Or, would he say, "Hell, yeah!"

One month ago, I would have said the former. After hearing about his newsletters, I'm no longer certain.

7. That's not an endorsement, though.

You hurt Rudy more by stating your readiness to vote for the person he was afraid unable to run against due to his cowardice prostate difficulty than by voting for any other candidate. You slap him across the face, you see.

It's all about hurting RUDY, that comment. If Obama were Rudy's nemesis, it would be Obama "feeling the love."

It's also about being as outrageous as possible to make a point. That bastard has no intention of voting for Clinton--he was simply "firing for effect" and only someone who is obtuse or has an agenda would actually take his commentary literally.

9. Well....

...only someone who is obtuse or has an agenda would actually take his commentary literally.

Similarly, only someone who is obtuse or has an agenda would actually believe I took his commentary literally.

Sensitivities are flying high.

[MADem]

11. Honestly? Anyone who read your subject line WOULD believe you had an agenda.

No "snark" or "Isn't this absurd?" to be found anywhere in your post, either...

I'm still down to two candidates, and plan to flip a coin if I don't get insight soon. So I'm not all that "sensitive" to anything other than the bias of others, really!

[Buzz Clik]

12. You have got to be kidding.

In my OP, a classic knuckledragger who is approached by a couple of guys he is certain are gangsters and want him to vote for Ron Paul, and he says, "Ok" and let's them put a bumper sticker on his car. He then says he'd vote for Hillary over Rudy, and I state "That's the kind of endorsement no one needs", and you read that as an agenda on my part?

No.

You've been swept up in the hypersensitivity of this friggin' board. It's understandable, but it is not my fault.

[MADem]

16. I am not "hypersensitive" because I haven't settled on a candidate yet

I'm down to two and intend to flip a coin if I don't make up my mind before I hit the voting booth.

To anyone, not necessarily a partisan, your post came off as snarky, starting with your subject line and ending with your little kick at the end--as if you were pleased that she earned the support of such a bunch of jerks--like it would reflect on her.

You may claim you didn't intend it, but it's how it reads.

8. I know an ardent right-wing fundie nut case in Louisiana

That will vote Libertarian (who ever that is) is Rudy is the nominee.

[Buzz Clik]

10. That must be a source of great comfort for Giuliani.

It's amazing that just about every knuckledragger in the country has declared that they'll vote for anybody other than Huckabee, Rudy, or Mitt. I tend to agree with MADem above, that all that bluster is just so much posturing. They'll vote for the GOP candidate regardless.

But, it's not these goofballs we need to recruit.

13. a vote is a vote

[Buzz Clik]

14. Ain't that the truth.

The only people who care about demographics of the votes are the pollsters.

"a dollar is a dollar. I don't care who gives it to me."
