I had a lot of hope for Ron Paul, but unfortunately, he just couldn't contend with TPTB. I'm going to vote Libertarian this cycle, just so my vote is counted. (IF it's counted, but I am positive my "Ron Paul" write-in wasn't counted last time.) And then, I think I will be removed from the rosters. Maybe someday my hope will be revived again (never say never), but for now, I feel beat.
