Why am I not surprised.

 

[Slugg]

Is that true?

 

[LibertyEagle]

Oh man. I'm bummed.

 

[r3volution]

........

 

[Brasil Branco]

Holy crap, how in the hell did Duncan Hunter get so many friggin votes? I mean to get 500 delegates out there to vote for an unknown... how is that even possible?

 

[Slugg]

Hunter? Wtf?

 

[njandrewg]

Hunter won?

WTF we came in 3rd?

 

[ShaneC]

Oh man. I'm bummed.

I'm not.

RP's numbers seem to be fairly consistent.

Compare to the others, and we're on a pretty good track nationally I think.

that bus would have gotten us 2nd

 

[The Only Woj]

well, only delegates can vote ... so this isn't a shock. in fact, I'm shocked he did this well.

 

[devil21]

Its a surprising result, assuming it's legit, but its not all that bad since RP was right behind Fred and if Hunter wins then theres no way to spin it in favor of the "top tier". I would have liked an outright RP win but the restrictiveness of the poll keeps many supporters from voting, in addition to those rumors about denying entry.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Well, they wanted someone they thought was conservative and they see that being Hunter and Fred, more than Paul. We're not doing a good enough job getting the word out.

 

[jmunjr]

Duncan Hunter made an appearance. Who else made one? Paul. That's it right? Makes perfect sense..

 

[cjhowe]

Typo...
RP - 16.7%

 

[wgadget]

Okay.....Fred Thompson will start getting run through the mill next week, and Duncan Hunter is broke.

So Ron's doing great, and we will continue to work even harder.

 

[Slugg]

Hunter is still toast, and fred barely beat us.... But, HUNTER? I guess he's been working texas for a bit or something.

 

[Johnnybags]

I am happy

because this was a carefully controlled vote, Paul has gone from the so called 3 percent to 10 in Iowa and 16 here, 16 here is important when recognizing it was very controlled. He is eating into the base a bit at a time. Keep sending the cash, Hunter got 500 votes and will be lucky to get 500 bucks out of it.
