Ron Paul Comes Up Short in Nebraska

The failure to gain a plurality of delegates means that it will be all but impossible to put Ron Paul's name in nomination from the floor of the GOP convention. While no one with even one foot planted in the real world believed Dr. Paul was going to magically dethrone Mitt Romney, such a move would have given him a 15 minute speaking slot and it would have forced some open debate on topics the GOP would rather not discuss.

I still expect some fireworks at the convention. But they will not be as bright.
