Hqs is RIGHT about not getting a recount in NH
I'm fully aware of vote fraud, etc. That said, to have Paul complain would isolate him further. USE YOUR BRAINS PEOPLE.
The final tally (might not be completey accurate, but is telling) was
Huckabee 26,760
Guilliani 20,387
Paul 18,276
Only 8,484 separated Paul from Huckabee
Only 2,111 votes separted Paul from Guilliani.
Too many Paul supporters are "loose cannons" like chasing Sean Hannity down with signs and shouting at him. Very Professional isn't it? That's great publicity, which puts us in "fruitcake alley."
You would never find McCain, Romney, Clinton or Obama supporters doing that?
GROW THE you know what UP!
Suggest you ponder this article by Alex Merced. He's right. NOW, Time and Money are on Paul's side.

#86 - Ron Paul People, the worst is over
Hey Guys the worst is over, we just survived two states where every candidate had massive organizations and staffs at work for the last 6 months with a lot of people hired to motivate voters to the polls. Luckily, this is no longer the case in the rest of the states here on out. In IA and NH you had a presence from ALL the candidates and it's all they can afford.
Huckabee and Mccain can't afford to rally and organize their voters in any states other than IA and NH, and Romney is suffering but betting the horse on those two states. So now Romney is scrambling to organize last minute in other states while the rest can't afford to do so while Ron Pauls grassroots has been strong in every state. Turnout will be lower here on out in many states for many reasons which puts the ball back in Ron Pauls court. We have massive voting, but high turnout has diluted our percentages.
- Michigan will have no campaigning from dems since there's no delegates at stake, and most of GOP is going straight for South Carolina except Romney who is attempting to rally Michigan for some much needed momentum. ROn Paul is the only candidate with an HQ and organization, Romney can rally but we'll have the organization to turnout the vote in a state the media doesn't care about making the turnout reallllly low.
- Nevada is being ignored by candidates due to being on the same day as South Carolina, and again Paul is only candidate with the organization there to turn out the vote. Super low turnouts will occur due to the switch from a primary to a caucus which will catch many likely voter off guard.
- South Carolina is a state that will respond to Ron Pauls federalist message, we'll see. Turnout may backfire on us again at this state since the media blitz will be here as well and the dem race motivates people to the polls and Obama eats up swing voters.
- Again a media blitz and possible high turnout works against us, but the lack of the dems pressence leaves the swing voters all to Ron Paul since Mccain doesn't have the money to reach Florida independents. Can we beat Giuliani at his stronghold?
- Florida is so close to super Tuesday I doubt any candidate will have enough time to organize anything in these states, Luckily Ron Paul has been running ads in many of these states and the grassroots is a lot more organization than many of the candidates have the luxury of having. Super low turnout and high RP turnout is a good mix for super Tuesday.
It's still anyones game, this is a game of endurance and everyone else has been sprinting but we're going at a safe pace.
