Ron Paul Effectively Ending Presidential Campaign

New submitter Dainsanefh sends this quote from the LA Times: "Ron Paul, Mitt Romney's lone remaining rival for the Republican presidential nomination, announced Monday that he would stop spending money on the party's 11 remaining primaries, in effect suspending his campaign. ... Apart from President Obama and Romney, Paul has raised more money than any other White House contender this year – more than $36 million. His calls for strict adherence to the Constitution and his no-nonsense manner have spawned a vocal and well organized group of followers, but not enough to give him a realistic shot at the presidency."

I was responding in kind to a comment which characterized everyone who didn't vote for Ron Paul as averse to reality. If you'd actually like to have a discussion about the proliferation of Randian-Libertarian ideology in the US and the self-deception it most commonly engenders (and without which it is logically untenable), by all means let's get into specifics. But I gave Jeng's comment exactly the response it deserved.
