I thought Ron Paul was technically still in the race, no?

Of course, as a liberal, I couldn’t have been any happier to read Boehner’s response. Would love to see some examples of those policies and supportive polling they are proposing that the American people have been asking for. I’m sure most Americans are very excited about the idea of drilling in ANWR so the price of gasoline comes down 2 cents a gallon in 2017.

As far as I can tell, if the solution to a problem isn’t “slash taxes” or “deregulate” or “God told me so”, than the Republican Party has literally nothing to add to the conversation.

I’m gonna go drop some cash into Boehner’s re-election fund. Keep that guy around.

True, Mr. Wood, McCain has always been a bit of a radicalist and Ron Paul would have been a far better option. It’s a shame he dropped out of the race, the dude showed some potential.

What’s in store for the GOP this fall? I don’t know about you all, but if political parties were treated like stock options, I’d pull a Bear Stearns.

Newt Gingrich, “chart a bold course of real change” otherwise they will “suffer decisive losses this November.”

I never thought I’d say the Democrats have a candidate more cnoservative han the GOP. Gingrich is right and Ron Paul is the only conservative left in the race; McCain-Fiengold, McCain-Kennedy, etc… The GOP really has a choice between Ron Paul or Obama/Clinton.
