Dr. Paul to receive two "pivotal" endorsements tomorrow!

[Lord Xar]

tbh, that was a pivotal endorsement but the media just never covered it

right, and the media won't cover this either.. UNLESS we circumvent them and notify the local affiliates of this so they can show up and cover it.

 

[trey4sports]

if for no other reason than to make O'Reilly eat his words we really need a win.

 

[unknown]

Yeah, just like Tom Davis was supposed to be "pivotal" for South Carolina...

That was a major endorsement. The debates carried Newt but everyone was hoping to get Tom's nod.

 

[Lord Xar]

Look, just to generalize northern New England politics -- state reps or state senators don't carry much weight at all. That said, I'd hope the use of the word "pivotal" reflects this and means that people who are actually pivotal to the typical voter up this way will step up tomorrow.

 

[Jerkface]

Awesome! I'll be waiting for the announcement on cable news tomorrow.

Kinda like the SC endorsement? What the hell difference did that make again? big difference among existing supporters, zero difference among targeted voters.

at least nobody else got it, like santorum. If he got it you know it would have been all over.

 

[ryanmkeisling]

The secret billionaire.

ghemminger?

 

[jdmyprez_deo_vindice]

I have a very good feeling about Maine and I am usually the type who expects the worst in every election.

 

[Feelgood]

Yeah, just like Tom Davis was supposed to be "pivotal" for South Carolina...

QFT

All these pivotal, tipping point, the tide is now turning moments are making me a bit dizzy. I'm going to OD on Dramamine. Davis and 3 other endorsements, and it was a complete wash as far as campaign momentum, enthusiasm and credibility went. Spin it any way you like, those are the facts.

 

[69360]

The capitol of Maine is Augusta, so I doubt it.

The stops tomorrow are only an hour or so from Augusta.

 

[pacelli]

at least nobody else got it, like santorum. If he got it you know it would have been all over.

That's quite true.

Too bad it isn't "all over" when Paul gets it.

I maxed out in August so I'm just riding the Ron Paul Freedom Train at this point...

 

[PaleoPaul]

At least the good news is that Maine isn't a bloodthirsty neo-con state.

 

[Lord Xar]

LET THEM KNOW OF THE UPCOMING ENDORSEMENTS SO THEY WILL COVER IT
(though there seems to be some missing from here)

remember these stops had been planned already. the Governor is the one that called for RP to visit him today, not the other way around

The stops may have been planned, but it's very possible the endorsements weren't.

 

[69360]

Yep, Lepage has a history of doing thing his own way and speaking his mind very plainly. He might have just decided he likes Ron and wants to endosrse him without being courted for an endorsement.

 

[UtahApocalypse]

That was what I was trying to get at.... If it is the Governor it was him that reached out today, after the campaign had its schedules already set. If he is endorsing then he would be fine with traveling.

 

[Student Of Paulism]

Ok so this LePage guy, from what little i am seeing from him and this whole NAACP comment, he seems to be kind of a blowhard type, with a bit of a tude like my state gov, and Romney asskisser, Chris Christie. Someone please tell me isn't just an older version of Christie? I personally can't stand Christie's blunt behavior and attitude, because it winds up doing more harm than good and he winds up insulting people most of the time and belittling them.
