ron-paulRep. Ron Paul’s campaign called on the rest of the Republican field to drop out of the race and unite behind him in order to defeat Mitt Romney.

“We urge Ron Paul’s opponents who have been unsuccessfully trying to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney to unite by getting out of the race and uniting behind Paul’s candidacy,” campaign chair Jesse Benton said in a statement.

Below is the full statement from Benton:

“Ron Paul tonight had an incredibly strong second-place finish in New Hampshire and has stunned the national media and political establishment.

“When added to Paul’s top-tier showing in Iowa, it’s clear he is the sole Republican candidate who can take on and defeat both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.

“The race is becoming more clearly a two-man race between establishment candidate Mitt Romney and Ron Paul, the candidate of authentic change. That means there is only one true conservative choice.

“Ron Paul has won more votes in Iowa and New Hampshire than any candidate but Mitt Romney.

“Ron Paul and Mitt Romney have been shown in national polls to be the only two candidates who can defeat Barack Obama.

“And Ron Paul and Mitt Romney are the only two candidates who can run a full, national campaign, competing in state after state over the coming weeks and months. Ron Paul’s fundraising numbers — over $13 million this quarter — also prove he will be able to compete with Mitt Romney. No other candidate can do all of these things.

“Ron Paul is clearly the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney as the campaign goes forward.

“We urge Ron Paul’s opponents who have been unsuccessfully trying to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney to unite by getting out of the race and uniting behind Paul’s candidacy.

“Ron Paul has the boldest plan to cut spending, a dedication to protecting life, and a lifelong dedication to the Constitution and limited government. He also has the necessary support to campaign nationwide against Mitt Romney.

“Our campaign is already planning ahead for South Carolina, Florida, and beyond. Soon Ron Paul will head to South Carolina to begin a feverish round of campaigning.

“Ron Paul is in this race for the long haul. And he is ready to fight.

“See you on the campaign trail.”

  1. I would like to buy Ron Paul a pack of Paul Mals and give him a bowl of clam chowder and then take a good look at how he drools about freedoms. He is a civil libertarian which is synonymous with the “new era nazi lifestyle”.

  2. He is an old geezer who is not always responsible for the silly things he says. That aside, he is truly a dangerous man. If the choice would be Paul or Obama (Ch”V) I truly don’t know who I would vote for. I would probably stay home (for the first time since I registered) or do a write – in vote (Is that a possibility in a Presidential election?)

  3. Another example of Ron Paul being out of touch with reality. The only candidate that the social conservative candidates (and Jon Huntsman) dislike more than Romney is Ron Paul. Why would they drop out to help him?

  4. #10, wow, Ron Paul predicted some predictable things, made some Delphic general predictions (e.g. “oil embargo”) that were applied to events in the future after the fact and got some things wrong. I’m so impressed.
    Yes, though, Ron Paul is smart. So were Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini. Does that mean we have to agree with his ideology? Most readers of this website don’t. Go waste your time somewhere else.
