Megan Kelly (FOX) misstates Ron's delegates

[Suzu]

She said RP Now Has FOUR Delegates!

Anyone else hear her say that just now? WTH??? She ought to know better than that. I guess they just can't ever stop with the lies.

 

[wgadget]

It's BEEN four, ever since they took away his Iowa delegates...

 

[zHorns]

I heard 3, really depressing that they keep saying this shit.

 

[Brett85]

Well, how many does he actually have?

 

[Tyler_Durden]

CNN has been reporting 10 all night.

 

[Oddone]

Hahaha! Don't listen to this crap. No one knows who has the Iowa delegates. Word on the ground, says Ron Paul may get most if not all.

 

[Xelaetaks]

CNN is saying Ron Paul has ten.

This. Don't listen to the delegate counts. Right now they are all made up just to make you think you know who's winning, but no one really knows the counts, and won't for quite some time.

Well, how many does he actually have?

the most common estimate is 10 but the fact is he will have more because his folks stayed for the delegate selection part after the caucus straw poll vote in Iowa, and the straw poll vote has NOTHING to do with awarding delegates. Romney's folks stayed too , though and Ron's and Romney's will both be trying to edge eachother out at every step of the process to have the most votes at the state convention so that they can get the most delegates to national. The party machine will be on Romney's side -- although you may be pleased to learn Strawn who wouldn't even read Ron's name when he came in second at Ames straw poll -- has been forced to resign. (Over Santorum not being awarded a formal win, more than Ron, but we worked together on that, I'm sure.) However, I would be surprised if Santorum got much in the way of delegates from there since the straw poll has nothing to do with delegate selection.

It is a process, and complicated, which is a big reason why media is saying there will be a 'lull' as if caucus states didn't count. Media is lazy.

i'd guess, optimistically, that RP has about 18 delegates (3 from NH and 15 from IA, given the fact that paul campaign hinting that they might get "most" of the IA delegates)

 

[tsai3904]

Only New Hampshire and South Carolina have allocated delegates. Iowa's delegates will be decided in June.

Ron Paul won 3 delegates in New Hampshire and has 1 superdelegate in Oklahoma backing him so he has 4 delegates.

 

[emazur]

today CBS Evening News reported 3 for Paul

 

[Dianne]

I saw that also, as we were eating dinner.. First time I turned on FAUX news in the last three weeks... but thought fair and imbalanced, lmao... My husband, who could care less, even said why Ron Paul only four delegaes... FAUX went back off...

Don't watch the mo fker's... They are government owned, and even in my wildest dreams; as I see to see some kind of coverage of the primaries... I am always disappointed and reminded the news media as we once knew it; is completely overrun by mafia and the mafia government.

TUNE the NEWS MEDIA OUT... never again watch fox, cnn, msnbc ... Until we can match what the government pays them in defense contracts; they will always be scourge to the ones who can pay them the most... And Ron Paul won't pay them a dime to scam Americans ... but Romney, Obama, Lunar-tick Newt and Santorum sure will.

Make your pledge tonight, never, never again watch cnn, msnbc, fox and all the government owned stations.

[Liberty74]

Hahaha! Don't listen to this crap. No one knows who has the Iowa delegates. Word on the ground, says Ron Paul may get most if not all.

I heard a news reporting claim 7 of them told him that they were voting for Paul.

 

[Dianne]

I actually think that should be our next money bomb.. NEVER WATCH "GOVERNMENT OWNED NEWS MEDIA AGAIN"
money bomb.

I heard a news reporting claim 7 of them told him that they were voting for Paul.
