Did we let HQ down?

That's no excuse.

Really? How bout if I rig a game of Russian Roullette with you. You have to go first, I give you a fully loaded gun, you pull the trigger, I win. When you have this much riggin against you, and they hand you that fully loaded gun, guess what, they win.

Go ahead, spin it any way you like, that helps you sleep better at night.

I think a lot of RP support has come from waking up apathy in people that used to not vote. You have to register so far in advance of these things, I wonder how many didn't meet those deadlines---so states had deadlines of last summer...some have party switching deadlines.....A lot of newer, interested people don't understand their states' rules on regular voting vs a cacaus...closed vote vs open vote, etc....

The real problem is with the American people in general. Look at the answers Greta got from polling the question - Why did you vote for.....?
These are some real answers...

a) He's best looking
b) He's black
c) She's a woman
d) first name on the list
e) name sounded good
f) all my friends said to
g) they are going to win anyway
h) I don't know

who you gonna blame?

Tell that to Rudy who raised a shit load and walked away with one delegate. Money was not an issue.

THE MEDIA SCREWED US!!

Too many supporters lost faith in HQ. As far as advertising goes, they let us down.

With far less money, Huck out-advertised us in multiple states. There's no excuse for that.

The MSM didn't help matters, but I think HQ could have done a lot more than they have up to this point.
