One thing is for certain: The GOP will knowingly elect Barack Obama if they do not select Ron Paul.

 

[specsaregood]

We took Story County!

Paul won way more counties than Romney too.

 

[White Bear Lake]

For what it's worth, we just WON Story County.

This is way better for us than a mittens win.

I agree with you there.

We ended up with 21.44%. 0.06% from being rounded up to 22%. :/

EXACTLY Santorum is a one off joke. he will be vetted this next week and plummet. They may prop up Huntsman for NH but after that he will be done to. That just leaves Paul,Gingrich and Romney moving forward. And with Gingrich pretty much on a rampage to collapse his campaign this will end up being Paul and Romney for super tuesday.

This works for me.

"Paul's son, Sen. Rand Paul, was visible in the background during the entire speech, looking less than thrilled."

Video is in the article.

Have to admit, I would have really liked to see a 24%-24%-22% result. Would have looked a lot closer.

 

[pauliticalfan]

We won Story, all right!

 

[kill the banks]

No. They will unknowingly elect Ron Paul if they do not select Ron Paul.

 

[jordie]

We won more counties than Romney (Not that it actually matters...)

 

[Kevin Smyth]

Only 2% of the voters tonight were Democrats. There wasn't the big crossover we were looking for.

I think the Iowa outcome is a very ideal result for Ron, actually. If he had won Iowa, everybody would immediately attack him, so he would have spent the next couple of weeks just defending himself and talking about stupid newsletters and such. But now Santorum will take all the heat, and Ron can focus on getting out his message. Running just a little bit below the MSM radar, but still picking up enough support to be seen as a serious candidate will work very much to Ron's advantage.
