Ron Paul denies third-party run. So why are pundits still talking about it? - CSMonitor.com: "Paul, despite his straw poll wins, continues to poll in the single digits (behind Herman Cain, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Perry) in national surveys of likely voters, and it's unlikely a third-party run, even if he did choose that, would garner significant support.
But it could certainly be a factor in the overall election, much like Ross Perot's run was in 1992.
Moreover, Paul has been reluctant to support other Republican candidates. In that same Fox interview, Paul said he would "probably not" give his support to a GOP candidate unless that candidate agreed with most of his positions (highly unlikely, given Paul's stances on everything from the Federal Reserve and defense spending to foreign affairs and aid to Israel)."
