Former GE CEO Jack Welch Says Ron Paul Should Drop Out: ‘He’s Not A Party Regular’
Former GE CEO Jack Welch and his wife Suzy appeared on CNN’s Starting Point and told host Soledad O’Brien that they were calling upon Ron Paul to drop out of the race — although all of their kids were for Ron Paul!
“You know, Ron Paul’s followers are not party regulars. He’s not a party regular. He really has these very, very impassioned followers. All four of our children are huge Ron Paul followers,” Suzy acknowledged. “So we’re living with this.”

Suzy Welch’s startling admission that they were asking Paul to drop out in spite of the fact that he had captured the imagination of her own kids ended up overshadowing the rest of the interview. The revelation caught the attention of CNN contributor David Frum, who was sitting on set, and tweeted incredulously about the news.
