Clearly his message touches a nerve with people because his campaign is growing like wildfire. If Dr. Paul isnt running, I wont vote in 2008.

I see where you're coming from, because Ron Paul is an amazing candidate. Making so much noise this early, he has a lot of opportunity to make a run at the nomination if things keep going the way they have been.

However, I really doubt that the support he's getting will continue to increase as much as it has early. The neocons will stick with their candidates and the Democrats with theirs (even though Ron Paul can appeal to both party's voters); likely resulting in Ron Paul ending up short of the top tier by the end.

I've said before, I hope that Ron Paul runs on the Libertarian ticket, but if not I refuse to not vote. Personally, I think that's a bit of a silly decision to make - and Ron Paul would probably tell you the same. There are several candidates every year that don't get a lot of media coverage and it's depressing that it has to be that way, but I'll support one of them so that maybe at some point in the near future the 'third party candidates' will be involved in the debates and so forth. Not voting at all is hurting just as much as voting for Hillary or Giuliani.
