No. If Paul is consistently winning pluralities, the other major candidates will drop out and the delegates they win will likely support Paul. I would be very surprised if "released" delegates choose to support a candidate other than the front runner. Party loyalty and "coming together" after a primary campaign is very important to the kind of people who are selected as delegates.

This is probably correct, and even if the delegates simply vote as the party leadership tells them, it'll probably be for Paul. As was mentioned in another thread about the possibility of a third party neocon running if Paul wins, the risks behind this kind of behavior of them destroying the Republican Party are far too great for them to go this route.
