Ron Paul will appear on ballot on 2 states - against his will

[abudabit]

GOP Congressman Ron Paul will see his name appear on Presidential primary ballots in November in two states: Montana and Louisiana. The Constitution Party of Montana, which is feuding with the national Constitution Party over the issue of abortion, has placed Paul on the Montana ballot as the party's nominee instead of official CP nominee Chuck Baldwin. In Louisiana, a group of Paul supporters have succeeded in placing him on the ballot there under the label of the fictional Taxpayers Party. Montana is a hotly contested swing state this year, while Louisiana is fairly solid McCain state. Paul refused to make a deal with the RNC to grant him a prominent speaking slot at this week's national convention in exchange for Paul endorsing McCain. Instead, Paul held a rival convention across town from the GOP convention.

Also rumor is he'll be making a big announcement next week.

Are either of these 2 states swing states?

The Ron Paul supporters should be supporting Bob Barr now - the Republican Party is over.

Barr just doesn't have the appeal for me. I'm afraid I might end up voting McCain, as much as I dislike him, just to ward off Obama. I kind of wish Palin was running as Pres.
