Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Rev, but the campaign that was over before it started is all but dead now. While he can toy with delegates in order to get a good speaking spot at the convention, he's dead in the water as far as future primaries go. Well, not dead, as I know some will vote for him regardless, but no money and no investment in states = no win in states.


Ron Paul announced Monday that his campaign will no longer spend money on presidential nominating contests due to lack of funds, effectively ending his campaign for the Republican nomination.

Paul wrote the following in an open letter to supporters:

Our campaign will continue to work in the state convention process. We will continue to take leadership positions, win delegates, and carry a strong message to the Republican National Convention that Liberty is the way of the future. Moving forward, however, we will no longer spend resources campaigning in primaries in states that have not yet voted. Doing so with any hope of success would take many tens of millions of dollars we simply do not have.

He made a better run at it this year than in 2008. Kudos to that.

Im glad he didnt get the nomination though.
