Ron Paul is not throwing low class attacks at McCain on a 24/7 basis like Hillary is doing with Obama. Ron Paul has not set out to damage McCain so that he can clinge the nomination himself, and thus is only marginally if at all hurting McCain and the GOP in general.

With Hillary it's a completely different story. Her strategy is to damage Obama beyond recognition to make him look unelectable, and according to polls it is working. So when Obama gets the nomination, Hillary will have damaged him and with him the party to a point where maybe there won't be enough time to recover before the general election. It's not about Hillary staying in the race - of course she has a right to do so and she also still has a chance to win, eventhough a very slim one. It's that she is trying to tear Obama to pieces and thus significantly weakening her own partys success in the general election, that's the reason why she should drop out.

Ron Paul is doing none of that, so it's completely irrelevant if he goes on or not.
