No, I think the fact that he's running as a Republican will pretty much insure that doesn't happen.

States want to move up their primaries in order to be more influencial in the process. The earliest primaries often set the tone for the following primary elections.
What will prevent Ron Paul from winning the nomination is the fact that he is a nut.

Ron Paul is at 2% of the vote, with a margin of error of 4%, that means it's possible that Paul could get negative number of votes. That's a heck of a handicap to overcome.

both parties are doing everything they can to ensure that Hillary and (enter GOP corporate shill here) are running against one another.
As for primaries, your vote doesn't really count in either party.

Doubtful.
Paul's poll numbers are not that high, but he does have a lot of money in the bank to spend right now.
