Ron Paul backers prepare takeover

Republicans nationwide have noticed Paul�s organization and takeover strategy, one Nevada Republican leader said.

�I just came back from the national (Republican National Committee) meeting and everybody was talking about the Ron Paul, well-organized takeover,� said Heidi Smith, Nevada national GOP committeewoman.

Paul�s troops have been large and in charge at many GOP functions across the nation that lead into the states� GOP convention.

This has definitely been a good news day for American conservatives!

It just *keeps* rolling in!

Minnesota has something to be proud of. It's almost enough to offset the depression of having Tubby Smith for a basketball coach!

Ron Paul�s Minnesota delegate blowout prompts Romney �panic,� says Paul adviser

Minnesota will send 40 delegates to the Republican National Convention. Over the weekend, 20 out of the 24 delegates based on congressional districts were awarded to Texas Rep. Ron Paul.

Thirteen Minnesota delegates will be allocated based on the results of a statewide convention in May, according to Paul campaign senior adviser Doug Wead.

Wead wrote on his blog that GOP presidential front-runner Mitt Romney is an a �panic� after the Paul landslide. Similar efforts to bolster the Texas congressman�s delegate count are underway in Iowa, Colorado, Maine and other states.

�[A] number of Romney Hawks are now deeply concerned that Ron Paul has already laid the groundwork for similar success in six more caucus states,� Wead wrote.

Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul declined to comment on the record about whether or not Romney is indeed in a panic.

zeal and commitment can overcome tiny numbers if the procedures permit it.....enjoy yourself while you can.

unfortunately for cult candidates with devoted fanboys, it doesn't work that way with real elections. everybody just gets one vote.....well, except in some urban areas.

You need to inform yourself.

There's a political revolution taking shape in America.








The primaries are over.

By the time Romney takes Texas on May 29 with more than a 100 of the 155 delegates in a landslide in Paul�s home state; he will be close to or over 1200 delegates and he only needs 1144.


In the first place,...no,..the primaries aren't over.

In the second, no one knows the true delegate count.

But keep on wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood.

Some of us aren't ready to give up yet.







Still having trouble with the math? With the true delegate count?

Average out the polls and give Romney 834 delegates; he needs 310 to reach 1144.

Average out the polls and give Paul 84 delegates, he needs 1060 to reach 1144.

Most of the polls other than RNC use various methodologies to try to add in some of the unbound or unpledged delegates. The RCP and AP polls are pretty close.

The RCP after April 24, but not counting Pennsylvania with 72 delegates
Romney 838 delegates
Santorum 267 delegates
Gingrich 141 delegates
Paul 88 delegates
Total 1334 delegates

AP delegates count:
Romney 847 delegates
Santorum 259 delegates
Gingrich 137 delegates
Paul 80 delegates
Total 1323 delegates

Either Romney or Paul are my choices, but Romney has the numbers and Paul does not.

It would appear Bristoe is convinced the Ron Paul campaign will secure the nomination through nefarious means, though I don't imagine he would term the theoretical tactic as such.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

They act like liberals. Can't win honestly.

Supporters of GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul tried to commandeer the Alaska Republican Party convention this weekend in Anchorage. They were disruptive, big in numbers � and partially successful.

Their candidate won the party chairmanship, beating out the man backed by Randy Ruedrich, who has led the party since 2000 and didn�t seek another term. But they didn�t win their chief goal of changing the party rules and claiming all 24 state delegates to the national Republican convention for Paul, the favorite of the libertarian wing of the party. Instead, Alaska will send six Paul delegates to Tampa in August.

Failed tea-party backed U.S. Senate candidate Joe Miller and his wife, Kathleen, were working the crowd behind the scenes, according to Alaska Dispatch, an online news site. Kathleen Miller ended up winning a spot as one of Alaska�s three electors, Ruedrich said. In that mainly ceremonial post, she would cast one of the state�s votes for U.S. president in the Electoral College should the Republican nominee win Alaska.

He does it all for the money, and it's working. Who cares about actual support with votes when you can just keep bringing in the Benjamin's baby!

If he was so noble then he would be honest with his minions and admit zero chance of winning and stop fleecing them at these rallies.

But not nearly as much as 8 years of Romney.
