Great!! However, if Paul managed to get +50% of the GOP voting for him.. I don't see him catching only 13% in the GE
He'd likely win because he'd bring in the Old Right, many social/religious conservatives anti-war folks of all stripes. Johnson and the Libertarian Party would endorse Paul. The Constituition Party would endorse Paul. I don't think the GOP establishment would sabatoge their own future credibility (the little they have) just to stop the father of the Tea Party. Besides the neocon/establishment/progressive wing has had the top of the ticket since Bush 41. Since 88 they have went 3-3 with both of Bush 43's disputed by many. In my lifetime ,when a conservative has led the GOP ticket, they win as badly as the RandPaulslide of 2010.
