He didn't officially drop out (few people do; there's big FEC considerations so most just 'suspend' until they get their financial obligations in order) but said he won't actively campaign. Instead, he's trying to grab delegates at the state conventions themselves to potentially have a voice at the national convention.
Anyway, Paul's so popular that he bombed even at the caucuses that were supposed to be his firewall of motivated supporters. Back in January, he was going to employ an Obama 2008 strategy of holding his own in primary elections but sweeping the caucus states with huge margins due to large numbers of enthusiastic supporters. How'd that work out for him?

He pulled some crazy **** in the Louisiana caucaus, but that's mainly because we have a primary and a caucus and the delegates are split between them. So after all of the Republicans voted in the primary election, they thought it was over until the presidential election. Paul's supporters, on the other hand, showed up in force for the caucus and he took something like 17 of the 20 caucus delegates.
Yeah, he's managed to collect delegates in the after-the-fact caucuses but not enough to be significant except as a "Lookit that" story on the political news sites.

Ron Paul is going to be this election's scapegoat to explain that he was the only reason why (Nominee To Be Named Later) didn't win.

I thought Herman Cain didn't win because he was black.

Nah, his tax plan was just way too complicated for people to understand.
The tax plan that sounded like something on a Denny's menu?
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
That'd be the one.

As always I hope the GOP picks up a supermajority in the house and senate and sends Obama the way of Jimmy Carter.
