Because IF any Republican really can beat Obama that means Romney in 2012 and then he runs as the incumbent in 2016.
If Obama wins, then I guess Hillary is the natural choice in 2016, and who knows what that election year would look like but I defer to my first point made above. Just going with that. I just want to game how to elect someone in the primary other than Romney or Newt. Cain is out and so is Paul in this scenario. If Paul bounces up to first in real life, that is a different animal.
To me, logic says Ron Paul should plan to throw his support behind this guy at the 2012 convention. Who would make a good VP choice for him? If not this guy, who should RP try to advance in 2012 besides himself?

I can see voting for Paul in the primary just to give him more potential leverage just in case he wakes up, but I would kill myself if Newt wins the primary over Romney by one vote (or I will move to France. I reserve the right not to kill myself).
Even if a move like this fails, I am hopeful it will be tried. It makes sense to me. You have to play the game to the end, you play all four quarters. Scew Newt and his toads.
