It's tricky and even dirty, but it's the nature of politics. I have no illusion... I know if things were reversed other candidates would likely do the same.
I see what you are saying. It's just that the news has talked about how Paul didn't hit Romney as hard in the debates because he had a backroom deal going. Rand denies it, but it looks fishy.

I don't think anyone should drop out. I want them to deny Romney the 1,114 delegates he needs. The reason I want this to happen is that voting is down in the primaries and Romney may be winning, but he isn't winning by a landslide. If he was doing so well, nothing any candidate was doing would stop him from, handily, getting to his goal. He isn't doing that well.
