You kicked butt at the polling station I worked. Ist in Reg. Delegate and 1st by a mile as a alt.

I guess I'll use that as a stepping stone for my council run next year. :D

Again I must thank you for a day spent in the cause of Liberty.

You're welcome. If it's any consolation. You didn't come in last for CD-18.:)
 
Mine did worse by 10%. We were the best RP county in 08. 1 delegate. What the hell? I blame the influx of NY and NJ people moving into the area in their freshly built condos and mcmansions. I can't wait to get out of here.

More choices this year maybe. Santorum on the ballot this year, not in 08, maybe.

I'm a little disappointed that there didn't seem to be any apparent strategy involving delegates. How many people worked today and got nothing, zip, zero, nada?

I've been asking for any single relevant piece of information about our delegates.

Got nothing. None. And if you move forward with no research, no information, nothing, you get about 5 out of around 70 delegates. 5 is better than none. So, good job and all.

But, whatever strategy we had to win delegates seemed completely random.

Perhaps it wasn't. Perhaps we won the delegates we won because we put in special effort to help the specific candidates who won. But there was a lot of "I need help too".

Also consider all of the effort that went into promoting the Ron Paul brand in PA. Completely pointless. We should be smart enough to realize that it's all about delegates, and unless the Ron Paul name is right next to that delegates name, liking Ron Paul isn't going to translate into the votes for the right delegates.

That's just PA though. Think of all the time, all the effort, people put into waving signs in the summer of 11. In PA, it comes down to 18 separate elections where 3 or 4 delegates can win in each of those elections.

That's what it is in PA. And we should know this at the beginning of the process.

It seems like much of the grassroots Ron Paul campaigning, the specifics, are simply what people like to do. They like to wave signs, and they like to march. And there's no evidence that this is helpful, and there is evidence that it can be harmful.

Handing out cards at the polls is always good, tried and true stuff, but if everything else was scrapped, and 100% was about getting specific people elected as delegates, we could've done better than whatever we end up with.

We apparently got 2 delegates in RI, according to CNN. That's good. And some here. That's good. The Northeast is Romney territory. And there's NJ left, but that's it for the Northeast. We should be able to get some delegates moving forward.

We need to organize by town and borough, like the establishment does. If we start having our own committee meetings in every town (no matter how small the meeting is), then we can win. Right now everyone seems stretched too thin, we're focusing on whole congressional districts at a time rather than one precinct at a time. We should have these meetings and vote for who we want to run for specific offices or for delegate in an organized way.

edit: this will also increase our chances of having people at every poll handing out our ballot

PaRocks. The way I see it, Ron Paul grassroots is overhyped. You can't have 20% doing the real work while 80% are Rah Rah supporters banging on the keyboard.
 
Ron Paul only got in last place in ONE of FIVE states. That's really good progress. He used to be last in most states. This is really good progress.

Also... I think Newt will be dropping out soon... he's in so much debt and isn't even doing well!

This makes me so so happy!!!
