We got 49 more states to go.

Yes, we are third, but look who is second and first. A flip flopper and some dude a week ago noone knew about. Ron Paul has many shortcomings, but our lack of enthusiasm and funds is not one of them. Mitt Romney is an easy target, all we have to do is show people how he changes his mind every 5 seconds.And Santorum has no ppl, no funds and no durability. He is just another fad that, just like Perry, Cain and Newt, will fizzle out. Where do you think Santorum people will go to? A Mormon?

Plus, remember, we have Michelle, Newt, Huntsman. Do you think they will last on and on? No. Where will their votes go. Well, if we change our maxi pads and hit the streets, to us.

We will not win because we get first place in every single state.
We will win because we will organize to get us delegates and because we will not switch over to any other candidate. We are the proverbial tortoise in this race.

Keep stressing to people that only Ron Paul can beat Obama.
Keep campaigning and telling people that Ron Paul will keep running until the national convention.
Keep rebuttaling "I like him but he like Osama bin Laden" nonsense.

This is not over. And while a third place cannot be called a victory, it is certainly not a defeat.
Don't leave the party, anyone. It's just getting started.

We basically had a three way tie for first against all odds. I'd say that's an amazing result.
 
The support and momentum is judged by expectations. We did not achieve expectations. Even Rand and Paul said at least 2nd, we didn't achieve that, we didn't meet the expectations we set forth. No matter how you slice it, it's a let down.
 
This is a set back... but we can do well next week to make this a 2 man race.

Seriously? That's kinda dumb. Who's let down? Who's going to just quit fighting for what they believe in?

He will have some money now..and some momentum..sorry but it sucks..
 
Lol, many shortcomings?


I would say some, not many.

I would say one is a given, and RP admits it himself, and it really makes me wonder why the HECK the campaign and RP does not have him a professional speech coach tagging along with him EVERYWHERE, critiquing/honing his message after every single debate/interview.
 
Yes but Santorum doesn't count, come on. He basically did get second. ;-)

WevE got to come up with a grassroots plan to take on the media somehow. Expect the media blackout to start back up, they'll bash Ron for a day or two as not being electable as proved by Iowa, then they'll just ignore us.
 
I was bumbed at first but then thought...with all the crap RP has put up with the MSM false stories, manipulation of news, negative reporting/questioning, etc etc etc... I've been a life long demo w/closed eyes. I've converted my parents and a few friends. If it wasn't for RP and info I've gotten from you guys, I'd still have my eyes closed. And if I hadn't seen what the MSM does with my own eyes, I would not have believed it. Its mind boggling!! I don't think any candidate has ever dealt with so much! And with all that, we're less than 5000 votes behind 1st. Just think about it. And its only the 1st state. So keep doing what we're doing, but twice as hard, keep talking to friends and family, and be passionate like you are. and we WILL keep growing, and getting stronger!! I have no doubt.
