Handicapping the GOP and LP PrezNom Races

Neither the California or the Orange
County Libertarian Parties are doing
much in the way of outreach, events,
fundraising or recruitment. They
also don't seem to be doing much for
Candidates...

So, the only excitement left for me
to think and talk about is the two
Presidential Nominations up for
grabs from either of the two pro-
freedom political parties.

"Since the time of the Greeks, there
have only been two political Parties.
The Pro-freedom and the Anti-Freedom
Parties.

The Libertarian and Republican Parties
are two branches of the Pro-Freedom
Party"
Tom McClintock

The Envelope Please.

My Personal Favorites for Republican Nomination:

1. Ron Paul 2. Mitt Romney

Ron Paul is far better than any other GOP Candidate.

Handicapping the race is a different matter.

My predictions are that Mitt Romney gets the Republican nod.

Huckabee Second

Giuliani Third

*Ron Paul Fourth with 5-10% of the result.

All others less than 5%

Any of the top three could win, and Ron Paul stands to hold enough votes that he could play kingmaker and choose the winner if one could get his endorsement.

For the Libertarian Nomination:
My Personal Favorites:

#1 Wayne Root (L)
#2 Ron Paul (R)
#3 Steve Kubby (L)

On the other hand...

If Congressman Ron Paul decides to run
as a Libertarian, he can just walk into the room, and the Convention will be over.
