yes, paul has about 42 to 44 National Delegates. Now that Romney is out McCain actually has about 900 National Delegates, a lot of those unpledged Romney, Fred, Rudy, and even Huckabee delegates will close ranks around McCain.

I feel Ron's message hit the mark... It is almost as if he reads these forums. The two big issues here were the possibility of a 3rd party run and a brokered convention. He addressed both these issues in his message. He may not have said what we want to hear, but I believe he is being realistic and trying to look out for our well being while urging us to keep moving forward.

Why are you here????
I'm here because I'm focusing on Paul getting re-elected to Congress, just like he is. And because I want to get more people like Paul in the Congress. His Presidential bid is over and it's time to move on. I have and I will continue to promote the message.

No need for snarking! I don't agree with that poster either, but I assume he'd be ecstatic to be wrong
How about you go to the forums that say 'Grassroots support for Ron Paul's 2008 Congressional Campaign' at the top then.
Go look up the word 'nearly'. You may be surprised at what it means.
The rest of your posts are misinformation. You were incorrect on your delegate counts and still refuse to admit you are wrong. Bye.
How was I wrong on the delegate counts? SHOW ME HOW I'M WRONG!!!!! Everyone keeps saying this and nobody can provide PROOF! RCP says he has 14, plus he has 3 from the WV Huckabee deal. This is what I said. SHOW ME HOW THAT'S WRONG! GIVE ME PROOF! Which one of my posts are misinformation? SHOW ME! This forum is for people who believe in Ron Paul's message. Once his Presidential campaign is over it doesn't just cease to exist. A lot of people, INCLUDING RON PAUL HIMSELF, are focusing on his Congresional campaign and getting others in Congress. You're basically saying that Ron Paul wouldn't have a place in this forum if he wanted to join. It's the message that's important and Paul has said that we should continue the revolution beyond his Presidential bid.
You mean a thorough trouncing in Kansas??
It's not over yet. McCain will be shot down once again. It's his MO.
From Ron Paul's official website, his posting on 2/06.
Entitled: Ron Paul National Delegate Count Now 42 or More.
Are you calling Ron Paul a liar?
You and your 30 something posts are NOT helping.
I see. Thank you for correcting me. Finally someone posted something that said Paul has more than 14 delegates. He's still 700 behind John McCain though and Paul has said himself that he's focusing on his Congressional run. Those are facts. I've been defending Paul in a thread against a white supremacist and I've vowed to continue spreading the message beyond his failed Presidential run so how am I not helping? I'm here for the long haul and I will defend Paul's message as long as I live.
Good. Thanks. We'll keep doing what we've been doing for quite a while now... work for the Presidency. The Congressional campaign is also important, and many of us have donated to it, as well as contributed in other ways.
Forgive us for not shifting the entire direction of our massive front after reading one letter, which IMO was actually very encouraging and subtle. It is clear that we will not sweep the nation from here on out, but we will continue to make our presence known and work toward that "nearly" zero chance.
Thank you Kyle! Finally someone that didn't call me names or criticize me for supporting Ron Paul's Congressional re-election. You do what you think it best and I'll do what I think is best. We're both working for the same man so I don't see what the problem is here. I understand your viewpoint and am glad that you understand mine. Maybe there are some good people here afterall.
all we need to do, is derail john mccain. If he does not win a single state from this point forward, i will have considered it a huge victory.
to me, as a conservative, this is more about not letting the conservative movement die, and letting the neo-con's know that they aren't about to hijack our movement, our party, or our country.

Yes, I was a little surprised that McCain didn't sweep today. I still expect him to take the other two states. I think McCain was already declared the winner of Louisiana. I know Paul was screwed and is contesting the results though. When you look at it realistically though, Huckabee is only strong in the midwest and south east. When you get to states like Maryland, Vermont, Pennsylvania, and Ohio it's going to be tough to beat McCain. A lot of the remaining states are proportional delegates which he doesn't even have to win to get delegates, so it's pretty much guaranteed that he'll get enough delegates to win, as Ron Paul himself admits.
