Why is there no Bernie Sanders option? He probably got more Ron Paul votes in Iowa than any Republican did.

Can we stop this myth that Paul supporters are this large group of incoherent people with no ideological commitments whatsoever?

lol, it's not a myth. Rand did terribly in the 08/12 Paul strongholds, and Bernie did extremely well. Reddit and other sites seamlessly transitioned from Ron Paul central to Bernie Sanders central. Both candidates got/get the most support from young white male college students. It's time to stop denying reality and trying to explain it away. MANY (not all, obviously) former Paulbots now support Bernie.

Started out as 1 of 17 GOP Candidates, now with Rand Paul & Rick Santorum out, 1 or 9. #StillStanding

LOL

This reminds me of O'Malley tweeting about solidifying 3rd place after Lessig dropped out.
