February 3, 201610 yr Doubt that he's a VP candidate. He could very well lose his seat in the Senate. I think Kasich makes the best candidate for VP if he can swing OH to the Republicans. Bush or Rubio could pull in FL but I think Rubio is the candidate and Bush isn't interested in the second seat.
February 3, 201610 yr A report says he got out before NH in order to help work against Trump. I like him even more now.
February 3, 201610 yr Paul was the number 5 finisher in Iowa. So there are several other candidates continuing their campaigns who finished behind him in Iowa. Question... the comment stated at the start of the thread is that Paul has suspended his campaign. Is there any significance in him saying his campaign is suspended? Is he leaving the door open to campaign in a later primary?

Off the top of my head it gives them more flexibility about how the campaign's money can be used, whether paying off debts or donating excess cash elsewhere.
February 3, 201610 yr I totally missed the fact that Santorum was ever in the race. I should learn to read down the lists all the way to the end.
February 3, 201610 yr So with him out will Kentucky continue with Republicans voting March 5. I was not aware of this change until last night and it was to accommodate Rand so he could run for president and also the senate.
February 3, 201610 yr So that makes 3 now in the last two days, right? Santorum, Huckabee, and Paul....
February 3, 201610 yr I have said all along that the best chance for the Rs is a Rubio-Kasich ticket.
February 3, 201610 yr I have said all along that the best chance for the Rs is a Rubio-Kasich ticket. Agreed. Yet I think the best president would have been J.Bush.
