Paul’s Supporters: Romney is the White Obama

With blows exchanged between Paul and Romney supporters at the Republican Oklahoma state convention and Romney’s son booed loudly at the Arizona state convention, Ron Paul’s supporters look to make Tampa very interesting in late August. The fact is no one knows what Ron Paul’s plans are for the Republican National Convention and that has some worried in the Romney campaign as well as the Republican establishment. Will Paul’s supporters bolt the part for Gary Johnson? Or will they hang out with the GOP till 2016 and make a push for Rand Paul?

No one is sure exactly how many delegates Paul has accumulated — the New York Times puts him at 104, but he may have far more as supporters take over defeated candidates’ slates and even elect delegates bound to support Romney on the ballot. The only thing certain at this point is that the movement is growing more and more difficult to contain.
