I read your link�

While congratulating the Paul campaign "for apparently capturing their first state delegation in this presidential election cycle through an excellent get-out-the-vote effort today," Sarah Roy, chairwoman of the Greater New Orleans Republicans, characterized it as an "odd and undemocratic result" that would embarrass and distract both Romney and Gov. Bobby Jindal.

"The result of this ill-conceived and confusing caucus clearly does not represent the will of the vast majority of Louisiana Republican voters, as Ron Paul recently received only 6 percent of the vote in the Louisiana presidential primary," said Roy, who on behalf of her organization called for the state party's leaders to resign for designing Saturday's "debacle."

Actually, it's called studying the system,..learning how it works, then acting accordingly.

Big government's people do it constantly.

This time, the regular people did it.

Actually, it's called working the system and the fact that big government people do it is no justification.

It makes the Paulies no better than the Establishment.

If Paul got only 6 percent of the vote in the Louisiana presidential primary�

But he got a much larger series of delegate votes.

I guess the people who voted for someone other than Ron Paul in the primary don't care enough about their candidates to actually turn out and vote for them when it really matters.

Besides,..Santorum won the Louisiana primary and he's dropped out.

It looks like his supporters are Ron Paul people now.

So what's the problem?

A couple of points that B must have missed......from his link.

"As a result, under party rules, Paul is guaranteed at least 17 of the 46 delegates to the convention at which Romney will almost certainly be nominated for president."

" The results guarantee he will have a strong presence in the state's delegation to the Republican National Convention in August, even if he has little hope of winning the party's presidential nomination."

Don't think Steve_NO is losing any sleep over this.

Steve was here today bringing me a Lab and he was in a great mood...a little sad, perhaps, but we had a great visit but, then, we tend to see things the same way. smile

It will upset him, whether he admits it or not, because he likes to say Ron Paul hasn't won a caucus or primary. Can't say that anymore. Fact is, Paul likely won three or four previous to this, and the final delegate count will likely show that, as that's much harder for the establishment to manipulate.

Good luck with your new laboratory. You a chemist? grin

Seriously, though, it was nice of you to take that lab that Steve wasn't able to train. I hope you do a better job.
