Mitt down BADLY in MN

[PismoPam]

In 2008 Mitt got almost 26,000 votes. He won't even get 1/2 of that this year!
More important yet, he isn't winning a single county!

In 2008 Ron got almost 10,000 votes.
With 80% counted he has already got more than that.
And he is winning a few counties tonight.

Yep, and no one in the media is talking about it

I do believe this is the first time we've ever finished ahead of Mitt in a contested primary and or caucus.

So is Mitt on the "fringe" then to beaten so badly by us? We were polling fourth going into the caucus.

..Actually John King did make a point how it's miserable for the Romney campaign to come in third.

We need to make this the story. Focus on how badly Romney did and how bad turnout was.

Mitt might not get a single delegate in Minnesota. If he's doing this badly it means he's barely getting any delegates at the precinct level, giving him no shot at the county and state conventions.

I KNOW! Shows that despite what "they" say, people have minds of their own.

It SURE makes Romney's "electability" questionable. And "electability" was ALL Romney ever offered. Nobody that is a Republican because they believe in "limited and small government" is BUYING into Romney's convenient conversion to all the conservative values he spent years distancing himself from. I think that those that DO vote for him probably hold their nose and say, "at least he isn't Obama" just to survive the experience.

Anyway.

I am VERY, VERY, VERY happy with our results. I expected Santorum to take MN and am ecstatic to see Ron Paul in the 20th%. HA!

That is too darn much support for Ron Paul and too little support for the "done deal" (Romney) for this game to be over.
