Q: Who was the last person to actually cut government? A: Newt »« Newt Gingrich Exposes Mitt Romney’s Pious Baloney!

Is Ron Paul Really Just Trying to Help out Mitt Romney?

Here’s a crazy thought: What if Ron Paul is only in the race to help Mitt get the nomination? That probably sounds almost as insane as a Ron Paul conspiracy theory. However, today in New Hampshire, ABCNews reports that Ron Paul is doing just that.

Since Iowa, Mitt Romney has become the clear front-runner in the republican race. Not surprisingly, Mitt is receiving a new level of attacks, much as Newt did in Iowa. The one person who is not attacking Mitt Romney is Ron Paul. Why?

Just a week ago, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul teamed up to run millions of dollars in ads to take out the then front-runner, Newt Gingrich. However, now Ron Paul is defending Romney from his attackers. The strategy certainly makes sense for Mitt, and perhaps Ron Paul knows he would never have a chance at winning the presidency. Is there something in it for Ron Paul if Mitt Romney wins?

Come to think of it, I don’t recall any attacks from Ron Paul on Romneycare, and I definitely thought the recent New Hampshire debate exchange below to be odd at the time. In the video, Mitt defers to Ron Paul as the expert on the Constitution. Maybe the idea isn’t so crazy after all.
